Building the Cowboy
 
Well here I am new to this r/c world. I am an avid model rocketeer turned r/c modeler. I recently bought a Cowboy and am building it. I also bought an Max-S OC .35 motor. I have nothing about this motor as it was used but in very good shape. Is there anyone out there that is flying the Cowboy and any suggestions on how to build it as the guide is vague at best. Also I need info on the motor as the specs and fuel mixtures. Thank you!!!!

humm the Plane may be a hard one... I have not seen that one before. As for the engine, do you know what kind of carb it has? Most engines will fire up with 3 or 4 turns on the mixture. May be a bit rich but it should fire. You may want to have some one who knows glow engines show you how to tune it though. Tuning can be done by ear or with a Tachometer. You want to adjust the mix lean to get max RPM then go about 1/4 or 1/2 turn richer. More if the motor is new or it is real hot out.
