Is this a good twin onboard glow driver? or is there any other better?

I don't really like to use them, but for the first couple of tanks that i run, i like to have an assurance on my low end.

Here is an upcoming project. This one arrived totally apart in a large plastic bag. Missing so far, one rocker arm, a pushrod and tube.
Just started cleaning and sorting. Very low time on it from all appearances
This will build into a Saito 325 , five cylinder radial. The dual plug version. Should be just right for a Travelaire Mystery Ship.

hey Gary, I just had a thought for that radial. I bet no one has done it yet. you should build a model of the Phoenix. have it all scaled out with the men on the wings holding on for their lives 
. that would be pretty cool
Jim
Saito Engines: even painted pink they are still a man's engine

Jim, looks like pink is the new go to colour when painting a saito!... probably put those antsy fancy dandy black and gold GK"s in the shade for a while
Gary a friend flew a large stearman with an fa325 with all five flex pipes gathered down low. Sounded like a bloody singer sewing machine. Some short curved stub exhausts or a keleo style ring?

I got to admit I'm amazed at what Jesse finds and what the final result is to his restoration effort. It's pure poetry in motion! Hats off and a salute to your talents!

Im liking it, but i haven't been able to run it but 1 time on my driveway, i'm going to mess with it tomorrow saturday, will need the remote glows, glow ignitors wont fit due to the direction of the glow plugs on the head, they are pointing towards the firewall.
