Smilan, I'm glad you found out about the non-compatibility of nitrate dope before applying it over the primed surfaces!! Having used iron on films extensively, I would suggest you give Oracover (aka...

Ha, I'm of the same belief, some is always better than none! Seriously, I think your baffling will help a lot to direct air over the engine fins.

They'll have try pry 'em from dead cold hands!

I'm still flying large 80" wing span IMAC style planes with my Moki 2.10, which runs strong on 0 to 5% nitro fuel. Never understood those that say glow fuel is too expensive.

You mean you have a...

Yes, nitrate dope and baby powder is a classic and time-tested filler (smells good too!), but he would first have to check the dope's compatibility with the primer already laid down. Nitrate can...

RE: Moki not getting fuel

As the o-rings get old the low speed disk will start to wander due to vibration. I clean the carb thoroughly and place a drop of Goop glue where the disk meets the carb body to kkep it in place.
