mods if this isnt proper let me know and I will remove it.

If there is any interest I am curious as to what all you 049 enthusiasts would realistically pay for this engine if it were in a production state?
mill and lathe with digital readouts (not cnc at the moment)

I have altered the plans to add upgrades. mainly front and rear bearings and some other alterations.
I will be making another engine and using my old one as a exploded view for shows

since I will be working the machines again I have been tossing the idea around of making a few engines and selling them off.
but it does take a considerable amount of time and want to see if it will be worth it.

Hey Shnitzl, I would definetely be interested in one of your engines Smile

i would make it myself but have no machines at home and have no time at my school to make one.
What are you thinking on price?

Schnitzel,

It would help if you could provide weight and power stats. How fast will it spin a prop? Or was it designed as a display piece?

Thanks,

Ron

Needs a radial mount and a prop hub! Otherwise it will mount to a plane just like a Testors pipe bomb!

all good points.

a radial mount is not a problem, I can make the back crank case cover oversized hex stock with four holes (two top, two bottom)
the output will be threaded, I did not because this one was going into a tether car.

- without the mufflers it weighs less then 222g ( I quickly weighed it in a plastic case and the cox wrench was in it) this figure will likely change + grams
- depending on crank port size it can run 5400 rpm to 9400 rpm (likely vary also)
- about 3.7'' long
