I don't understand why the factory sets the timing to 40 deg on the 26cc though as it needs to be 28 deg! I had to extend the slots to get it at 28 deg and the engine runs sooo much better with more power. Cheers again.
Hi, just thought I'd point out as one engineer to another, that you applied the sealant to the lower crank case on the outside of the screw holes leaving an incomplete seal when it should be applied inside of the holes to prevent leakage. Sorry to be nit picking but in engines leaks are performance lost. All the best, Ed.
You're trying to convince me that black is white! I can see and the camera is not lying, the sealant is applied inside two holes and outside the other two. My point stands and I guess that if you can't even accept it when it's plain to see you're not much of an engineer after all. Thanks.
Yes my eyes saw it being applied to the outside as well. Everyone is human I suppose. My 26cc engine had a badly fitted circlip on the crank and ended up with a scoared cylinder and NO compression. New cylinder, piston and ring and fit the circlip CORRECTLY and it has done 50 flights with no problems. Human factor ... can't get rid of it. Good value for money engines though. Cheers
I just bought one of these, so will bookmark this till I get mine assembled. It will be hard to beat your time of 7:11 though.

Should have ended the video with this engines first fire up. I was hoping for that.

It was inside, not out side.
Thanks
