Hi all, A friend is GIVING me a magnum 4cycle .20 engine.... I know its tiny but what type of airplanes will do well with this engine?
I would like to have a MINI 3d nitro plane but i am not sure of weather or not 3d is possible with a tiny 4c like that.
thanks all

Me either and don,t beleve one was ever made.
I did purchase two thirtys three years ago for a small twin project Which proved to be a big mistake and I later got rid of them for two OS FX .25's a far better engine.
From the start they sounded like an old tennis shoe grinding around in a clothes dryer. and they were not even close to the power of a Saito .30FS or for that matter an OS .20FS.
Is seems quality control remains the chief problem with this company as I have used many others mags of various models with some being excellent and as many just not. With the mag 30"s I suppose it was a crap game I lost. Perhaps the 109 buck price tag has something to do with it.

John are they still running the street drags in Kingman? Or did they ever get permission to build a dragstrip? Only ask because last year at this time i was working in Yuca at the test track when someone can't remember their name was passing out the information.

Asuming it is a .20 you'll probably need to find .10 or .15 size models. I have no iea if any 3D models are available in that size. Maybe convert a little electric?

Hi, Can,t really say for sure, I'am sorry it's has not been something I followed. I do know they did have drags at the airshow up untill last Oct and over a period of years the drags and car show just kinda pushed the airshow out so there is no more airshow at the airport starting this year and not sure about the car show and drags.
