RE: nitro engines
I LOVE the Picco .28 for my trucks as they are nasty fast with lots of torque too. Right now I am in the process of making a dual turbo plug head for my .28's since the dual plug heads are working GREAT for my 3.3 engines and Novarossi drag engines so stand by and I will let you know how well the buttons work.

RE: nitro engines
i have never seen or heard of a dual plug head. wow. does it give you more torque or top end?
|
RE: nitro engines
Anything but the .50 (8.0)
It's a gas guzzling fuel leaking brick of a converted helicopter engine. Unless you plan on totally modding it and don't care about spending all your money on fuel. |
RE: nitro engines
thanx, i think im gona go with the .28 coz alot of people have recommended it to me, but how well does it preform
|
RE: nitro engines
how do you start the .28 if you have two plugs, do u use 2 glow plugs or something????
|
RE: nitro engines
most if not all nitro engines start with either a pullstart or a rotostart system(hpi) along with a glow igniter attached to the glow plug.
that 3.3 was the first time ever i have seen 2 glow plugs on a engine. Good choice going with the .28 lots of experienced people here have recommended the LRP .28 or the LRP ZR.30. I have also heard good things about the Mach motors. |

RE: nitro engines
Yes it is strong on the middle to upper end, and pulls wheels from a roll easily on my xl but not from idle well. Do you have a parts break down of the motor so i could maybe get some spare parts , the one way has seemed to been rubbing on the rod and i want to replace the rod and be sure there isnt susposed to be a washer to space it out.

RE: nitro engines
Everything you will need to replace can be located at nitrohouse. The Picco .27 has been discontinued and it seems that Nitrohouse is the only place that still carries all the parts you will need in order to keep these bad boys running great.
I also went on a Picco .27 buying binge a few months back. I absolutely love the motor in my X but have never tried to run one in an XL I would like to see some video of that combo please. Earl |
RE: nitro engines
Why run 2 glow plugs? These dont run off spark, and its a glow plug not a spark plug..
|
RE: nitro engines
Has anyone ever tried an ofna 807? i cant find any information on it but i mated it to my picco .27 and it helped the lean issue tremendously. Although i have a 086 and a 053 pipe coming for some testing.

RE: nitro engines
LRP ZR30 spec2 = brilliant in an xl
|
RE: nitro engines
LRP ZR30, best engine i ever had, you start it, and you run it, you never haver have to tune it;)
