So you have the 26cc beam mount in stock?

Gladly... If you will look at photo #2 you will notice the nipple fuel inlet is pointed up in the direction where the muffler needs to be. Hot muffler fuel line not a good combo.. This was one of the things that I did not mention when I said the carb for the 10cc was getting some redesign work... They are doing a re-jet and the fuel inlet nipple will most likely be replaced with a 45* nipple.

Sorry No... I was cleaned out by a man at the IMAA fly-in two weeks ago. He is building a big lancaster bomber. I normally only sell one or two at a time. I will have four more in about two weeks. Will that work for you?

I did post the info over a year ago. It is on this thread somewhere. I do not remember the RPMs I got from certain props that I tested. The power that the RCGF 60cc twin puts out will fly your CY Ag-wagon just fine. That is unless you plan to 3-D the plane. There will be more power then plane requires to fly scale.

Hi all, Have had my Rcgf 30 twin out flying the past couple of days. Very pleased with it running a 18x8 wood prop . No vibration to speak of. Aircraft is an 84" Chuck Cunningham Fly Baby approx 14lbs and it is overpowered with this engine. The only thing I don't like is it has a sharp crackle in the exhaust so I plan to try a couple of DLE inserts to see if I can quiet it down some. Mick.

Who carries these engines in the US. It looks like Balsa Products is not carrying them anymore.

Hi, I won't to use a 30~ cc gas engain for a very particular use, so for this I need the power curve of the engain, the power curve is the graph that shows how much hp the engain produce for any rpm in the rpm range from min to max.
I need at least one power curve for one of thes engains : dle30,rcgf32,agm30 or any other engain that is like this engains.


thank you very much!!!!!

You would have to diano one of these engines and I have never heard of this on such a small two stroke engine. There may be a way to convert thrust at certain RPM to give BHP. Good luck as this will be a very interesting topic.

They list them, but they are all out of stock except one or two. It has been this way for 3 or 4 months. I would say they are only selling what they have.

Regarding Captmicom/SW AeroVista, please note how many times you've seen anyone else, with any official capacity (Stateside), respond to issues HERE in the last few months? Not sure about how that affects others, but the fact he's out here supporting issues he doesn't get a darn thing for, says something about how he'll support problems he does have a hand in? That's me though, FWIW. -Al
