mvvs 26 petrol and tuned pipe
Hi there.
Can you give me a bit of info with regard to the throttling and mid range performance of the 26cc IFS petrol motor. It's a toss up of either the MTW TD40 canister or the 3266 tuned pipe. The motor will replace my problematic YS 140-sport and will be fitted to my X-TECH YAK - 54. The model is 73" span and weighs almost 11lbs. Would a 12oz tank be sufficient for a 10 to 12min flight, which is a mix of imac and a little 3d. Prop wise either a Mejzlic 18 x 8 two blade or 16 x 11 three blade. Oil wise, can I use 3W's own fully synthetic oil which is currently mixed at 50:1 for use in my 3W-55i powered WH Extra 300S. Any info would be much appreciated in helping me to make a well informed purchase. Regards Aeroboy. |

The 16x11 is not such a good choice. *- oilwise, use what MVVS prescribes, and use that in all your engines, not the other way around. |

Hi Pe.
Is 3W's own oil not as good as made out then!!. I've only just purchased a litre and at £15 it's not cheap. I may have some difficulty in obtaining Mobil 1 2T locally it may well have to be mail order. Is the 26 IFS going to be a good match for the YS 140 Motor that I have removed from the YAK due to problematic running and very expensive fuel. Have you any good information regarding baffling the motor in a Yak cowling ? Reg's Aeroboy |

LED flashing" thread at http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_62...tm.htm#6255021 I will post a complete report soon in my own forum www.prme.nl/forum (working on it, but time is not on my side) |

Aeroboy,
I also can't comment on the 3W oil, but I have to say that having seen the insides of MVVS engines running exclusively on the recommended oil, and parts from engines that haven't, I have no doubt that MVVS have got it absolutely right! The oil is readily available from MVVS - I just need to check the UK postal regs before buying it. BTW, the running in oil supplied with the 45, 58, and 116 is the same Mobil oil. |
