Another 26
Looking around on Ebay, saw what looked like a G26..
Ordered one, got it today..
Looks like they took molds off the Zenoah and put their logo on it..
Carb is an EXACT replica of a primer bulb Walbro, spark plug is a Torch CMR7H, exact replica of an NGK....
A few differences, the prop hub is 1/4 inch shorter, the spark coil and plug cap are a different shape, the mount plate has some lightening hole in it...
Took it apart, the chrome in the bore looks really good, there are 2 bearings on the front of the crank and one on the rear....
The wrist pin is solid, not hollow like the G26..
The crank had some sharp edges, nothing serious..
The carb insulator is a little different, but the carb is still on the wrong angle for direct connection to the throttle servo..
It comes with a pull starter like the G26 heli and marine versions...
Carb has a velocity stack....
HALF the retail price of a G26..Haven't run it yet, I wanted to look inside first...It will be converted like a G26....

RE: Another 26
Didn't take long to find the motor you're talking about on *bay. The price looks good, it would probably look GREAT if you didn't have to buy it through a middleman. Since DL copied the DA 50, and since this motor is a copy of the G-26, wonder how long it's going to be before the DL-26 comes out. Hey, I'm all for it!
