Default hog bipe ?

Hi all,

I`ve started my build and am planning to install the engine inverted would there be any issues with this? as I`ve seen here and on fubar hill most are only rotated 90 degrees. (engine to be used saito 115)

Thanks.

The only issues I can think of would be the position of the carb in relation to the fuel tank. If the carb sits lower than the neck of the fuel tank you may find a siphon setting up and fuel draining out of it when it's not running.

Hi,

I had that problem with a h9 spit it kept flooding at low revs so I just looped the fuel pipe and wound the low end screw in a bit. Thanks I can now go ahead with my build as planned.
