Just had a quick shufty thru the usual suspects websites.
The consensus is this motor comes from 1961 which go's to show just
how inaccurate they can be.

Re: Medallion 15 RC engine
Great review, and ads from the 60's, loved the plastic rib sets available
from Williams Brothers.
Now my question:
Does anyone know if the carb body from the TD could be fitted to the
Medallion 15. Would like to fit a throttle and I imagine the throttle featured
in the review is ' Unobtanium' John
from Williams Brothers.

John the carb bodies are interchangeable, as the crank cases are identical. It might be easier to just fit the Medallion Cylinder to your TD. Those throttle/muffler assy's pop up on ebay more often then not.
I too enjoy reading these old articles, even 48yrs after it was written it's still exciting. I doubt we will be dredging up old articles for electric motors in 50yrs......

Thanks, I don't have the TD 15, just wanted to be sure before lashing out for a
carb body. Was going to fit one of Bernies carbs but now realise what a dumb
question it was cause Bernie only does the 0.049 one.
Will hold fire till I get the proper one on Ebay.
Thanks again John

MECOA has them for the .15 TD. Your hardest find will be the NVA.
