Take it out and fly it. Assuming that it is clean, the carb is one of the best ever. I still occasionally take out my Miss Martha with its Como .51 PDP and it still runs with the best of them.

My first glo engine was an OK Cub .049 Kit bought in 1950, though it was hardly my alltime favorite. At that time it was sold as a set of parts from which the engine could be assembled and cost...

RE: K&B 6.5 RR/RE

KLXMASTER is right on. You will probably have to use something like a 9-6 or, at most, a 9-7 on a 6.5 to keep it near its comfortable RPM range. I have a 6.5 RI/RE and used to run it on a Miss...

Does anyone know of a good, reasonably inexpensive source for blank vinyl clad aluminum cases such as those used by Kraft, ProLine, Ace, etc?

RE: MK Curare 60

As best I can recall, for both the Curare and the Tippo the rule of thumb was that the airplane should barely sit in place when put down on the main gear and the tail. This, of course, probably...
