You might wanna swap out that Super Tigre carb for a perry carb! Trust me i have had many experiences with SUPER TIGRE! No i am not trying to bash at them. Its just that they were the only engines that my dad was buying at one point. And then i finally got sick of having to end each flight with an unexpected deadstick! So i finally just started buying my own engines. GO O.S engines! you can't go wrong with an OS!

E-bay was flooded with them for a while. I believe a divsion of WillHobby was selling them from a New York location. I bought mine from Harrison & Anderson Hobbies, they had an ad on RCU. Here is WillHobby website, maybe it will help. http://www.willhobby.com/

You will need nose weight with any glow engine in this plane. I would go with something like a 35cc - 40cc gasser if you are looking to swap the engine.

| Re: Unidentified Yak
I can not really afford a gasser at this point. I would love to try but not in the budget yet. I am going to keep this engine I think it will do fine it has loads of torque and turns a large prop. For what I am using it for it I think it will be enough.

| Re: Unidentified Yak
A non pumped carb? I think I will have to anyways. When I was running the engine yesterday the carb became extremely difficult to turn. The slide appears to be stuck inside the body. I can not figure out why. I took it completely apart and nothing I can see is holding it. I oiled it and it still doesn't want to work.
