Default Thunder Tiger 36 Pro CL conversion

Hi All! I am looking to convert a Thunder Tiger 36 Pro to use a true venturi for control line use. My problem is finding a venturi and needle valve assy for this engine. Anyone know of a source for this parts?

Many Thanks!

Pete

Send your engine to Tom Dixon, he'll custom fit a venturi and retime the engine for stunt if you want, he just did my Super Tiger 51.
Here's a link to his website.

Try to contact Randy Smith. He makes the stunt tuned AeroTigre 36 which is a Thunder Tigre 36. http://www.aeroproduct.net/%5C

Thanks for the information guys! I just ordered the parts from Randy. I can't wait to get this engine on my new Top Flite Nobler ARF! I'll see how she flies with the stock engine timming and determine if future mods are required or not.

I Ran one with a .280 venturi and ST NVA and a mac muffler. This is a dynamite combination with a smooth power delivery. Don't try to run the motor 4 cycle but into a wet 2. With the mac muffler it was like it was locked into one speed,never changed going up or down. Most enjoyable motor that I've used in a long time. Oh and it is cheap on fuel in this configuration. Prop was an 11/4 Zinger
