Re: Real world RPM

I saw different octane numbers. Does it matter? Which is the best with DA?

Re: Real world RPM

BME110 w/Pefa LL canisters:
First tests, 2 years ago:

Mejzlik 28-10 @ 7050-7100
Menz 28-10 @ 6500
Mejzlik 29-10 @ 6500
Menz 27-10 @ 7100
Mejzlik 26-10 @ 8100

never tried an actual "Tuned Pipe"

Currently, the same engine, after sitting for 9 months and about 250 hard flights on the engine:

Mejzlik 28-10 @ 6650 HOT

I think my baby needs to be cleaned up, decarbonized, and have a new set of rings. She's showing my neglect and her age.

Re: Real world RPM

Drill out the fuel passages to allow 2X the flow and screw in a glow plug...Mix methanol with the same oil ratio that works for you with gas...We like to use about 6% oil and whatever nitro works well for racing, about 25%....
Or use the stock ignition, it works well with glow fuel..
