RE: Club FOX!

Well, aren't you the wealth of Fox information! ;^) Mine is the bead blasted crankcase, it's the carb and backplate that is shiny. I went digging through my parts boxes and found a brand new Mac's...

RE: Club FOX!

Wow! They just line right up with the holes in the cankcase. I'll have to file down the two little raised bosses above and below the exhaust port for a flush fit. With an exhaust diverter like the...

RE: Club FOX!

I am aware of heat cycling and will break it in this way. I used Dawn Power Dissolver to loosen it up just now. I sprayed some down on the piston and inside on the con rod crank pin. After opening...

RE: Club FOX!

I just got my NIB Fox .29RC for an Ebay auction I won with very little opposition. I am trying to re-create a Little Stick (I have a laser cut short kit) that I had back in 1974. I was stationed in...

RE: Club FOX!

Now that I have solved the problem of mounting the Mac's muffler on my .29 I have another problem. Turns out pushing on the throttle lever od the Perry carb resulted in the throttle stop screw...

RE: Club FOX!

Wow! Nice neat job and reversible too. By the way, I have not run a Fox .29 in many years. What nitromethane percentage is appropriate for this engine?

RE: Club FOX!

The .29 I have has the holes top and bottom of the exhaust port, but no tabs on the side. There is no exhaust baffle. I have bought the Macs muffler you mentioned and will use a strap I have from an...

RE: Club FOX!

The .29 I have does not have the exhaust baffle, so I guess it is a later engine. What it does have is a Perry carb. I have not run it yet, but from what you say the Perry carb is an improvement. ...

RE: Club FOX!

What's the difference between two Fox .29 RC engines where one has a rotating flap in the exhaust and the other does not. I'm guessing the one with the flap is an older version. When did they...

RE: Club FOX!

I just acquired an old Fox .29 RC like I had on my Little Stik back in 1974. I plan to build another Little Stik from a short kit that Eddie at Lazer Works cut for me. The engine has a nice little...

RE: Club FOX!

Thanks erlwb, I was worried about my memory. Apparently I'm not that old yet. Yes, that looks like the one I had. I wasn't using an APC prop back then though. Just for a kick, I would love use a...

RE: Club FOX!

Back in 1972 I was stationed at Korat AB in Thailand. They had a hobby shop on base with a limited selection of kits and engines. I picked up a Little Stick and I am sure I used a Fox .29 R/C. I...
