RE: Hangar9 .60 P51 Which retracts?

If you want to have a chance to adjust those needles at a later date, I suggest you use BLUE Loctite!!! Red is way more than you want for holding power.

RE: Is anyone not having problems with ST 2300 and 3250 engines?

The ST 2300 uses 18-20% oil fuel, this is from the manual that comes with the engine. I don't have a larger ST so can't say what they use for oil content.

RE: New Tower Hobbies .75

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

I don't have the bore and stroke of that engine, but if you do you can calculate it yourself. BORE X BORE X STROKE X .7854 = DISPLACEMENT.

RE: How do I strip the chrome off IMEX rims?
