I second that!

Yeah Ken, when I first saw it I thought it was kind of hokey but after I thought about it for a minute I thought, what a good idea. Now where can I get some more! LOL

That 62cc would have been great when I was building my Ziroli Stuka. Everyone sticks a G-62 in them (like I did) but the carb sticks out the side.

Yeah I see the rear carb on this one as a big plus for getting inside of the cowl and performance. The thing that amazed me about this engine most was how vibration free it was. If you didn't see the prop turning on this thing you'd swear it was shut off. Also the $340.00 price tag makes it perfect for the guy with a lot of large scale warbirds. You don't have to break the bank or swap engines out with every build.

Thanks Jody, now I know where to come when I strip out a plug. LOL

I tached the 22x10 (A-1) Hawk prop on the RCGF 62b today...

RPM
idle: 1980
peak: 5690

wish I could have measured the thrust... just insane!

You may need to re-tune it a bit for that prop as I got numbers well above those. I agree about the insane thrust though. I've never had an engine and prop blow my clothes around the way that thing did on my test stand.

honestly, I'm starting to wonder about the tach itself.... it's old,
and I borrowed it from a freind.... I think it's a hanger 9.....

it truely sounded higher than what it read... but I'll post the actuall
that the tach said....

I'll play with it more later on, and do another post....
I'm thinking about getting one of those plug in tachs
from Ron @ southeast... those are too snazzy!

all I can say is the wind chill behind it was c,c,c,cold and it was
still in the 50's here yet today.....
