Re: CRRC Pro GF26I
Has anyone tried the Top Flite Power Point props? If so, how do they compare to the Xoar props?
Thanks, David |

Re: CRRC Pro GF26I
Hey Hardtop, these engines have an auto RETARD system. When you first flip the prop, the ignition electronically retards the spark timing until the RPM increase to a preset RPM level and then decreases the retard as the RPM increase until it is at the amount of advance mechanically set by the position of the on the crankcase.
Also, when the engine is mounted on an airframe, the airframe will absorb some of the vibration unlike when the engine is mounted to a steel test stand. My test stand is made of plywood. see my earlier posts. In summary, this engine is VERY SAFE to hand start and does not exhibit any back fires due to the auto retard ignition system and has a reliable idle down to 1600 to 1700 RPM. Don't knock the GF26I it if you haven't run one yourself. |

Re: CRRC Pro GF26I
Hi Guys,
what a good size model to fly with this engine ? Am going to buy one of these units. Bench run to get some experience and then looking to build a new plane for the engine. My first foray into larger models. Thanks in advance for your input. Regards Eng |

Re: CRRC Pro GF26I
KittyHawk, there are quite a few good models that will work with this engine.
The Ultra Stik Lite is a good all around sport flyer. The import guys have several Yaks and Extras that are correct size (about 72 in ws) Sea Gull makes several good planes for this size engine. I put my GF26I in a Laser (see earlier posts) I have two Sea Gull Super Star 120's NIB and still have one Laser NIB left. I will sell them to you guys Cheap for $120.00 each plus shipping. |

Re: CRRC Pro GF26I
Hey Jim,
Is there a way to turn the fuel nipple on the carb so that it will face a different direction? I put some turning pressure on it and it didn't seem to want to turn. I didn't go any harder, I didn't want to snap it off. |

Re: CRRC Pro GF26I
You can turn it around,it's a plastic piece molded around a brass insert, pressed into the carb body.. Put some JB weld around the bottom to stop the leak...Takes about 2 minutes....
There are some metal inlets that fit the same hole on Tillotson carbs and some Walbro carbs... Walbro part number for the plastic inlet is 128-218...Bennettbuilt.com has metal inlets...
