OK Cub .024
duaneh Today at 5:28 pm
I just recently got this little guy, and thought it was interesting enough to share. It wasn't damaged, but was filled with dried castor. Took a while to get it all out, especially the plastic backplate, where I was too chicken to use heat. An overnight soak in fuel did the trick.
It's a little larger than its competition. The glow heads do not interchange. The engine mounting bolt pattern is also different.
Here are all the parts. After minimal cleaning, the reed passed the suck&blow test. An interesting feature is the thin steel washer seen at the bottom right. This goes in the case, and serves to keep the crankpin from contacting the reed boss.

Nice Duaneh….I like smaller engines and may have chase one of these down one day…. Just wish the heads weren’t so unique….If you run it or fly it please let us know…. I’m sure there’s a classic little plane just right for it….

Thanks for the photo breakdown Duane. I have never seen an Ok Cub .24. I have ran some Ok's but .049's. Good luck with it. I can see you thinking about building something special to mount it on.

Well, I have this Kingpin...
Still a long way from flying the .024, though. Have to run it on the stand first, to see how it performs. In any event, I only have the glow head that came on it. It does glow, but is obviously used, and no source for a replacement.
