I may sell my new Queen Bee complete. No box or papers but engine has never seen fuel or been mounted. I just bought a Paw .061 and more compact engine.
What you will spend to complete yours a whole engine would be way to go. It is mint and undamaged and fine compression. I have not set my computer for pictures at this time. Former owner went to all electric and I bought it from him. I was going to use it in a Super Sniffer FF ship.

I am sure someone was selling a queen bee muffler and glow head adaptors on eBay but you do not need a muffler to run the engine.

dankar04 Sun Aug 14, 2011 1:00 pm

Q/B muffler is a big plus when you use it on model. Gets the oil away from your plane. Engine looks well made and very smooth. Nice sport engine and uses a regular plug right from the start. No glow heads or conversions.

I know but I could not find the right word at the time I was writing the last post

Ive been told the TD09 head fits it but ive not tried ,if so just get someones old td head and drill and tap it to take a plug,

The muffler i wouldnt bother as they are not that noisy and its good to prime it in the exhaust to help it start, they have a less offensive noise than a .049

nitroairplane Mon Aug 15, 2011 4:57 pm

Thats what i thought but you can buy a glow plug adapter for the tee dee .09 from MECOA

ekitten2 Tue Aug 16, 2011 9:05 am

unfortuneatly our flying field requires all gas engines to be fitted with a muffeler fi one is available if not then we cant run it ...there

nitroairplane Tue Aug 16, 2011 9:26 am

Ok, maybe you could modify one from the toki .05 engine to fit.

GermanBeez Tue Aug 16, 2011 10:46 am

or, you could make one out of aluminum air conditioning piping.

the guy is pretty weird, but its pretty easy to make if you have some basic welding skills.
you'd have to scale it up a notch, to fit the thicker cylinder, but i think it would be managable.

nitroairplane Tue Aug 16, 2011 11:06 am

Yes I saw that and I noticed 30gb has a lot of interesting rc related videos.

ekitten2 Thu Aug 18, 2011 10:52 pm

thanks heeps guys for your help...im wondering if there was ever a diesel conversion ever designed for the .74?

I think MECOA male a diesel head for the tee dee .09 and if the heads are the same it should be compatible with the 0.074 but I am not sure if the queen be can hold up to the stress of diesel operation and it may overheat easily like the tee dee 09 on diesel.
If the heads are not compatible then I am sure ylibcould make a diesel head even if you dont have a lathe.

dankar04 Fri Aug 19, 2011 1:09 pm

Hearing this run it sounds pretty good. No speed demond but not bad at all for sport engine. Plus had carb and good muffler. If you want to fly Diesel but a Diesel. Paw makes some real sweet engines. My .061 is wonderful. Break a crank and see how much it will cost.
Cheers,Dan lol!

nitroairplane Fri Aug 19, 2011 3:03 pm

I have owned a paw .8cc and it was great and i own a paw 19 but have not run it yet buy a diesel they are great especially tiny ones for the cute factor Very Happy

dankar04 Mon Aug 22, 2011 1:21 pm

Looking at my .074 a Diesel conversion should work fine as it looks well built. Paw offers a wide range of Diesels .034/.049/.061. .09/.15/.19 thur.60 Smaller ones can be bought UC or RC. Bigest I ran was a Hunter 3.5cc .21 and man had tons of power. Dan Flying

i..we have diffaculty getting P.A.W engines here in ozz aparantly

i have a .9 paw al ready in use (with rc carb and muffeler) its gr8

but i dont see manny of them about

and this .o74 i have is perfect for a f/f conversion on a small keil Kraft de havilland tiger
moth kit ive been hording (kit number MO 210) im looking to fit micro servos and floats as i think it would be gr8 on a small dam that is nearby

ekitten2 Fri Aug 26, 2011 12:30 am

ive always liked small diesels for my type/scale of flying just the abiality to fly with mim equipment as we dont have a car i can simply pack model n stuff into a suitcase and take a buss

nitroairplane Fri Aug 26, 2011 4:36 am

that is the PAW website they deliver worldwide and the are terrific engines i love them to bits diesels will always have a special place in m heart and that is one reason that i WILL manage to run a .010 on diesel even if i have to hand make the crank with a file and drill.

ekitten2 Mon Aug 29, 2011 4:53 pm

thanks to you guys ive now orded the new bits re carby and diesel conversions hopefuly when they show up (in a few weeks) i can add this motor to its new home ie a tigger moth

nitroairplane Mon Aug 29, 2011 5:18 pm

Good luck and dont break that crank.

ekitten2 Fri Sep 02, 2011 4:55 pm
