OS .61FX Parts needed!

Hi Guys,

I'm not sure if this is the right subforum or not, but my club is getting together a "club trainer" to hopefully encourage more people into this great hobby. Several members have donated their time and parts to get a Hobbistar 60 trainer going. We have an OS 61 FX that is missing the needle valve components on the back plate and the whole carburetor assembly. If anyone has parts to an 61FX that they don't need we will gladly purchase, or complete engine but must be cost feasable.

PM me.

Thanks!

That sucks. Wish this would have been up here a couple of days ago, I just sold my 61 FX and it was in good shape. Does Hobbico or OS not sell parts for this motor anymore.

The carb costs almost as much as a new engine...

I'll go through my engine parts box and see what I can find.

Yes carb is expensive. I can only get it thru Tower Hobbies and with shipping and taxes and duties to Canada on the new part it is not favorable.

I do believe, We ( All of Us Aviation Nut's) are a great group of people. We all have are good pionts, along with the Bad, sure we all get bent out of shape at times, that's just human nature.
We are all here to help each other, and learn all we can from each and every one. My Hat is off to Sleepy C, and all the Staff here on Flying Giants for providing us such a Top Notch Site. Here is a Quote My Daughter Sent me. She told me Dad this fits you to a tee.
"Do not get my Personality and my Attitude twisted, because my personality is who I am, and my Attitude depends on you!!! " LOL!!!
