Hi,

Have to confirm with my buddy on what mode he was on but for mine, all my Hitec receivers are running on normal mode. The firmware versions on my systems as follows:

RE: Lock out problem? Two planes lost

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks for the info.

I guess I will be holding on to my Futaba for a little longer or at least until we can get this thing sorted out.

I am a convert from Futaba after I...

Lock out problem? Two planes lost

Sunday morning, me and my buddy lost a plane each. We were the only ones on the field flying the Hitec Aurora 9. This is what happened:

Friend's plane. First flight of the day. A Kyosho Calmato,...

RE: Ignition battery for zenoah g26

Hi Cap10b,

No intention of giving up on the Zenoah G20ei. It's one sweet engine except for the ignition drawing too much juice. Well, that is now hopefully fixed after my conversion to Rcexl....

RE: Ignition battery for zenoah g26

Nevermind. Found the answer which is "No" the ground is not needed and "Yes" just match the wire colors. After switching over to the RCEXL ignition, I found that I did have to readjust the idle...

RE: Ignition battery for zenoah g26

Another question. The sensor connector on the original Zenoah ignition does not seem to follow convention with the black wire in the middle between the red and white. Can I assume that the wire...

RE: Ignition battery for zenoah g26

Quick question. The original Zenoah ignition has a ground wire to be screwed onto the crankcase. The Rcexl ignition does not have this ground wire. Not needed?

RE: Ignition battery for zenoah g26

Thanks. If it's just changing the connectors, that much I can handle. It would make a already sweet engine that much sweeter. I have three DLEs, a Brison, a 3w, a YW(Korean) & a CRRC. Except for the...

RE: Ignition battery for zenoah g26

When you say that the RCEXL ignition module is plug n play, does it mean that no other adjustments or mods are required other than changing the connectors? No need to change timing or sensors? I am...

RE: Battery for a CH Ignition

I would say go get a 4 cell pack. C&H ignitions runs great and they run forever on a 4.8 pack. I have a C&H ignition on a old Brison 2.4 that have been running for years on a 4 cell 1100ma Nicad pack...

No intention of letting the 3w24i get away. You're right. Awesome running engine but on the heavy side. Still looking for a suitable airframe. Something with lots of wing area like a decathlon,...

RE: Covering hole in choke valve

Thanks Jody. Makes sense. I just got a tube of Permatex from Ace to fix an air leak in a 3w24i. It's gasoline resistant so guess I will use that.

Hi,

Yes, I am using a pitts muffler on the engine.

I am also using 95 octane gas with a 50:1 oil mix. The oil is mineral based.

However, I did manage to run the engine on a MenzS 17x10 prop. Idle at 1900 rpm with smooth transition to WOT....

Thanks guys. I might just go ahead and give it a shot. Since I have the engine mounted on a test stand now, it shouldn't be too hard to do. Will let u guys know how it goes.
