Cant wait to see the outcome...

[wonderfulcat]

Watch all the other vids in the series. I did this back in April!

[milforddbrider22]

can u buy it all built...and is it hard to keep the engine tuned

[wonderfulcat]

No, you have to build it yourself. The engine is a pain to tune, but if you are not into fiddling with engines, don't have nitro engined rc models for a hobby!

[lookersd]

is there any power difference between an elctric rc bike and nitro like can a elctric one still do a wheelie?? and can i buy one off of u if so just send me a private messege please please reply

[joeycool12]

[tommee10533]

Great project, I loved your brushless version

[yamahamike500]

This guy is loaded with r/c's nice video man thank's for showing us I really enjoy'ed it

[FXerGerFra]

Cen NX-16 engine in your hand ?

[wonderfulcat]

There are several cars that fit a similer engine too this. Protech, cen etc. As far as I know it's know as a VX-18. See other movies for my voyage of discovery into finding the manufacturer in Taiwan!

[FXerGerFra]

Ok , its right they look quite simmilar , does such a little and probably also mall motobike realy a .18 engine ? and why do you showed a electric bike at the end ?

[wonderfulcat]

The bike is an electric model that I have converted to a nitro. At the end I have shot the bike in it's stock electric form. Look at my other vids to see the bike running with a nitro engine. No it doesn't need a .18 engine. It was the first cheap engine i could get hold of!

[FXerGerFra]

Ah ok because .18 thats not a small engine thinking e.G. about cars lik a t-maxx with .15engines ;)

[wonderfulcat]

It's a very heavy bike. A lot heavier than an 1/8th scale buggy for instance. Also I don't open the throttle that wide any way!

[yamahamike500]

You do have a point wonderfulcat it can cuas it to blow up or over heat or result into a filed out glow plug....i really love your movies i cant wait till you doa new project and put it on here....

[jermotank]

what a nerd!

[wonderfulcat]

And you are watching my movies! What does that make you?

[allybebe]

would u like t sell it?

[wonderfulcat]

Not at the moment. When I do want to sell it I will contact you first!

[tnraven]

lol, sure sounds like a RS POS :-)

[Pleomax52]

those fyucking engines r so small and fucking run>!!> holy shit man

[Luda12Plyr]

clear video. Its a first on utube

[milforddbrider22]

da da!1 lol

[nEMESISODK]

great video :D

[fgsgds]

you should've used a brushless motor :)

[wonderfulcat]

I have an other Ricky and I'm thinking of doing just that. However it will work out a lot more expensive. My Nitro motor and a new fuel tank came to about £20. A complete brushless set up will be around £150 (unless you know different, then please tell me)!

[fgsgds]

Quite cheap for a nitro motor :) Well 150 a reasonable price for a BL system. Mine was about 230€ (about 150 pounds aswell) You save lots of money for fuel, though ;)

This thing is really slow stock :-/

[wonderfulcat]

Show me some footage of your brushless Ricky. Inspire me! Nitros are unreliable, smelly, and noisey but I like the idea of an internal combustion engine pushing it forward. I have a nitro and an electric thunder tiger ducati. Head says electric but heart says nitro!

[kx85racerr]

k..that is one of the coolest things ive ever seen....:( i want one

[andressuaste]

esta de locos men !

[wonderfulcat]

¡Estoy quizá loco pero es diversión!
