Yea i now have a fully automatic glow driver setup that works really well, as i said before i will make another video next time i run the engine

[carosel43]

any idea of hp? cant seem to find a figure anywhere, even the suppliers cant tell me, sounds lovely :)

[carosel43]

I think the Hp is about 4.2 but i am not sure, i know i can turn a 22x10 prop at 7000rpm and thats pretty close to a 45cc petrol apparently

The plugs are OS F's

I bought it, and its destnation is, in theory, a 1/5th scale ( 96inch span) F4u Corsair

Have you bought any shoes?

Put an electric system on those plugs!! I just saw a few REAL engines to come into production at AUTHENTICSCALE COM and they use electrical system for the 3 glow models planned for production. they clain it runs far better and the plugs never quit

Did your engine not come with the 5 glow plug leads and boots?
