Few people are using them anymore because few people are alright with burning a gallon of glow fuel in 4 flights.
When there's a wide variety of gasoline engines available, it's tough to even window shop a Moki

Few people are using them anymore. Plus they are user friendly and were never cheap so there is no inexperienced modelers to come here and blame Moki for their inability.

Ray, here are my two, a .61 LongStroke and a rare .51rc. Both are high quality and smooth running. The .51 is wearing a MVVS 7mm carb, it came with an OS carb which I gave to a friend for an OS engine. A 12x7 is about as small as you can go on the .61ls, it loves to work.

!!! MOKI !!!
My only one and I love it.
1988 Moki Model S-15V
6.5cc (.40cu in.)
It arrived with less than a half-gallon of fuel through it but was gummed up and stained badly and had spraybar damage.
I rebuilt it with ceramic hybrid bearings, stainless steel fasteners and ceramic paint.
I replaced the carb with a SuperTigre SUPG1803 until I rework the original.
The motor is going into a Dumas U-71 Atlas Van Lines 40 hydroplane.

If you know anything about a Moki you would not be running glow fuel but Methonal which is not much more per gallon than petrol. Yea it might use a tad bit more but won't singe a hole.

Hobbsy I sure like your Moki's. I would like to try that 61 LS on a Sig King Korba.
