    Advice On Selling Items

    Folks, It breaks my heart to say that I'm getting out of the hobby. Three small kids and no time. Id like to get an idea of what some of that stuff i have is worth some advice on where to post it for sale (besides here). 1) 45 hydro. My own design (I have an engineering degree and have...

    New ops .45 engine pipe length

    Depends on the application and how you prop out your boats. If you lug a bigger prop (diameter and pitch) you could run it at 10-5/8 " from plug to weld on the pipe. This was on an old 45 rigger pulling a 1462 prop. The pipe got shorter and shorter but pulling smaller diameter props like...

    Chunky engines

    YUP a midway support would be recommended to limit the amplitude of the vibration. The engine vibration is only one part. The boat will be running in choppy water at high speed and that will shake/jar the sugger out of the boat. A greesed nylon guide tied to that center rib should do nicely...

    Prop balancer

    you can get that top flight balancer to work but you have to take care in the setup. First thing is to reduce the distance between the magnets and the rod to a minimum. you want both magnets pulling almost equally strong against the rod so it doesn't press hard into either side and but lightly...

    Which particular numbers and how precise do you need them?

    Starter box with Dewalt LiFe battery.

    Yup 3A usually gets it for most plugs. Didn't know if you were running some ultra cold plugs that would need 4+a to glow hot. One last test is to fill an old plug with some water and see if it can burn off the water. When the plug is not lit it looks like a much smaller resistor than 0.5 ohms...

    Starter box with Dewalt LiFe battery.

    Looks like a pretty good sized module so they might have enough output capacitance to deal with the output current pulses. DC-DC switcher is the way to go anyway so you don't generate so much heat. Good luck.

    Starter box with Dewalt LiFe battery.

    Were you able to get 5A from it for your cold plugs?

    CMB 45 Gold top

    The HR will have much higher timing than the original gold head EVO. if you don't machine the block to match the ports you'll have some restrctions to the flow. Be carefull you don't raise the block passage height so high that you go through the outside of the block though. Best P/S I found...

    Starter box with Dewalt LiFe battery.

    make sure you wear safety glasses when you do the "pop" test. When these large caps vent they do it in one of two ways. either they POP! and release pieces in the air or they may jsut vent with a fizzle, if you inline with the vent, capacitor electrolyte may gets prayed in your face. the...

    Starter box with Dewalt LiFe battery.

    Panel probably won't like 28V directly. Yes, MOSFET is our EE fancy name for switch. When you switch it on and off like that to regulate voltage or current it stays very cool. This is called switch mode. In linear mode (like your linear regulator) there is a significant power dissppation...

    Starter box with Dewalt LiFe battery.

    Hi Terry, EE expert reporting in. ;) The way the Hobbico glow plug circuit works is there is a little electornic switch that turns on and off about 1000 times/sec. This switch connects the battery to the glow plug for a very brief period of time (say 100uS) then opens and disconnects the...

    Mac 45 carb.

    Yup, I think the OS carbs also fit (9B and the one on the OS 46 VRM) Both are good carbs.
