You need to get some serious lessons on how to tune an engine the right way, its running lean, by the second time it stall i would off stop the video check the plane, fix it and then go have a good time in the air. good luck next time.

Nice plane. 1: Turn neddle valuve 1/2 turn richer. 2: change glow plug. 3:Check fuel line for tiny hole, which will cause air to get in and stall engine when you throttle up.
the more damage a glow plug gets the more it forces the engine to be tuned leaner and leaner until the plug just has nothing left on the coil to retain heat and it flames out.
looks and sounds like the plug was fried from a lean high end needle.
when the plug if fried it will not idle.
that filler port is junk also they can bleed air into the system if the valve is not closed properly.
sorry about your motor hommie ! try evolution brand motors, they're inexpensive and they just dont quit, plus you can find the parts to them anywhere. that's a nice bird, I'm about to buy one but im looking 4 a good deal. where did you get that one? I like that color. please let me know so I can get me one.
thats a 47. the towerhobbies 46 is such a destructive engine. it doesnt want to turn off even with the throotle cut. it has have a lot of ground incidents such as crashing and destrroying other planes with the propeller. such a powerfull engine
Quickly pinch and release the fuel line. If the engine wants to quit, it's too lean. If it doesn't change RPM, it's too rich. If it quickly increases RPM for a moment and then returns to where it was before, it's just right.
and when u are trying to start the plane u can get someone to put there finger on the muffler till fuel comes out the carbe and then take ur fingur off it just helps get fuel to the engine quicker
u can just turn the plane on and open the throttle fully open then hold ur finger over the carby and turn the prop a couple times i do it like that all the time when im flying it is easier then taking out the plug and blowing
man that is so frustrating!! i will agree with rooffy2k though, way way way too lean....if the engine keeps cutting out like that you need to tune the thing better. i had a plane that did that too once and i had to replace the fuel line and made sure that all fit well becaue it would cut out suddenly.
workig engine! Video is very funny, it reminds me to times when i tried to start my COX PEE WEE! The COX ran- but mostly in the wrong direction- that was funny, too. Thank you for this great video.
...are those fuel lines properly fitted...little air bubbles sneaking in here and there? If that the case, then that Cessna of yours will never reach those clouds!...that GMS might not be a wise choice...try something like an O.S.FS-56 4-stroke!
Hey Cessna dude. You don't need to "break in" your engine on a test stand; run your plane the way it is out at a parking lot somewhere; and rich tune it while taxing around; you would not only breaking in the inside loose; you'd also notice how your bird reacts.
I did not even see this guy even try to adjust the poor needle valve rich. the poor engine is new and starving for fuel, this will eventually blow his glowplug and it will run like crap and he'll blame GMS. A person needs to learn the do's and don'ts of model engines too........
Pain in the bum trying to tune a motor in that fashion,best to set them up on a bench,mounted to piece of wood held tightly in the vice.Then you can start it up rich and run it for a tank or so and lean things out as it goes,a few tanks of fuel and a tweak here and there and it should be ready to be refitted and fly,shame it got splatted ,we have all done it!!Stew.(PS my father used to love building planes and was a pro at it,but he never flew his "Works of art" for fear of crashing them!!
This is an older video of the Cessna. it crashed on flight 3 and now i have a new plane. This is only a movie of tuning the engine so it did never leave the ground. The engine is tuned now and we will have videos of flying after 12/25/07
dude all u need to do is have no glow plug on put the throttle open and turn the prop around about 4 time to get the fuel in the motor then try it see wat happens :)
OMG!!! He started this airplane without it not being tied down to anything!!! And why would he pull out the antenna when he is within inches of the model aircraft. That is a huge hazzard because the antenna could get hit by the propeller while the man is carrying it. But this is a nice plane, I love those cessnas.
This is why I stopped flying glow planes. Electrics are so much easier, not as exciting... But more time flying and less time trying to start engines.
It is a pretty big scale D, there are little valves right next to the engine on the carburetor and in the fuel line, by adjusting those you can make it lean or rich at the low or high end of the rpm range. it DID fly well a few times...then it took a nose dive into the football field...oops you can see the last flights of both the planes on this video "ssTKTCHuRA0" (replace the letters at the end if the url)
hola, tenes la aguja de alta del carburador muy cerrada, abrila 1 vuelta... you have the "aguja de alta" closed, open 1 "vuelta" i'm from argentina and don't speack english very well... good luck and bye
try using a syring the needle thingy to put a bit of fuel through the air intake and it should start up right away, works for all my rc planes. About the engine stalling, it is because it isn't getting enough fuel. had the same problem with my 72" piper cub
Mate,your bottem end is rich and your top end is lean. screw the idle needle in a half a turn and open the top end needle out a turn. It should run reliabley then. A o.s number 8 plug will help to.
hay mate you need to let a couple of tanks run in first and leave your glow start on for about 15 sec try using a glow plug #8 they are a lot better and warm up faster
your problem is simply that the engine is still fresh, set the main needle rich (2 1/2 turns out and just leave it running on tick over up till half throtte tied back for about 5 tanks ... every 10 mins of running, turn the main needle in a wee bit and run the engine flat out, then take the needle back out and leave it ticking for a wile ....
with some engines this will take longer than others, but you will know when it is broke in totally when you can go from idle to full with out any stutters etc..
to final tune your engine ... run it at full throttle with the main needle rich and wind it in untill the engine begines to die (it may stop) from here take the needle out approx 4-6 clicks and you will be tuned perfectly
start engine -never let four cycle warm engine up around 1/4 throttle-you should run full throttle and ajust hi spd needle peek and back off 300 rpm 3to 5 clicks on needle valve- bring back to smooth idle let idle for 15 to 30 sec. take back up to full throttle pick plane up carefullyhold above head nose up and out in front off you a couple off times plane should hold rpms
also ur engine needs to run rich is its a new one. u need a tie back to stop model movin while u rev it. u also SHOULDNT fly a model like that for a first plane. also y the hell did u cut the cowl and fit the engine uprite. should b on its side inside the cowl.u need to see a model shop or pilot 4 help. u will crash if u dont.
ur receiver switch is round the wrong way for starters. on should b away from u coz if u catch a twig on landing or touch and go it will turn ur radios off. TURN IT AROUND B4 SOMETHING HAPPENS!!!
I have to say, as unsuccessful as you usually are in your videos, you guys are fairly entertaining. I especially like the one where you try a dead stick landing and completely miss the road. =)
tim....I saw the crash video...sorry to see that happen, that was a very good looking plane. Who was the manufacturer of it? I've never seen one in blue.
Isnt priming an engine just getting fule in to it. The technique you use is fine just as long as it works right? My way worked so i see no proboblem with it.
Okay first off, your "priming" the engine wrong. Open the throttle up all the way, plug the carb with you thumb and flip the propeller 3-5 times or untill you see fuel in the lines going to the engine, then once or twice with your thumb off. Secondly, rev the engine up all the way and richen your engine. Run atleast a tank or two through it before you lean it out any. And lastly, look for a club around you and have someone teach you how to fly.
that prop is sharp and cuts fingers!!! Already ran 3 tanks through it, and we know how to fly, it just takes practice, and there are no clubs around here, besides, the type of people who go to the clubs probably wouldn't like the way we do things anyway, thats why we get so many negative comments...oh well. Thanks for the tips though.
No problem, but hey if the propeller is sharp, sand the edges down with some sandpaper! I do it with all of my propellers, and I fly 1/4 scale stuff. Let me know if you have any questions, Im not going to be rude because I was (well we ALL were) where you guys are now. But stick with it!

the more damage a glow plug gets the more it forces the engine to be tuned leaner and leaner until the plug just has nothing left on the coil to retain heat and it flames out.
looks and sounds like the plug was fried from a lean high end needle.
when the plug if fried it will not idle.
that filler port is junk also they can bleed air into the system if the valve is not closed properly.
always start rich when you add a new plug.

Here's the pinch trick.
Quickly pinch and release the fuel line. If the engine wants to quit, it's too lean. If it doesn't change RPM, it's too rich. If it quickly increases RPM for a moment and then returns to where it was before, it's just right.

tim....I saw the crash video...sorry to see that happen, that was a very good looking plane. Who was the manufacturer of it? I've never seen one in blue.

Isnt priming an engine just getting fule in to it. The technique you use is fine just as long as it works right? My way worked so i see no proboblem with it.

Okay first off, your "priming" the engine wrong. Open the throttle up all the way, plug the carb with you thumb and flip the propeller 3-5 times or untill you see fuel in the lines going to the engine, then once or twice with your thumb off. Secondly, rev the engine up all the way and richen your engine. Run atleast a tank or two through it before you lean it out any. And lastly, look for a club around you and have someone teach you how to fly.

that prop is sharp and cuts fingers!!! Already ran 3 tanks through it, and we know how to fly, it just takes practice, and there are no clubs around here, besides, the type of people who go to the clubs probably wouldn't like the way we do things anyway, thats why we get so many negative comments...oh well. Thanks for the tips though.

No problem, but hey if the propeller is sharp, sand the edges down with some sandpaper! I do it with all of my propellers, and I fly 1/4 scale stuff. Let me know if you have any questions, Im not going to be rude because I was (well we ALL were) where you guys are now. But stick with it!

Toooooo lean. If people here knew the first thing about these planes, they would understand why you posted this vid. Nice video.
