    Zippkits starter

    yea they are all small engine [125-250cc] cheap bike/atv starters. its only like 3 or 4 diff types. they are made to run off 12v and not longer than it takes to start a scooter. ive had about half dozen of said bikes and in the last 15 years the starters have shown to be not so durable . some...

    Discussion on lowering nitro %

    this is it. most people that say they dont like or dont see the difference with high[er] nitro are probably slow millers,break for corner-ers,and short time future[of the heat] anticipators also not willing to accept the consequences of a bad decision or able /willing to re-stratagize after a...

    Discussion on lowering nitro %

    meh. i think it comes down to setup and driving style,plus ur hull design CHOICE and u will find some people cant use high nitro and others cant use low. i started out in r/c using nothing more than 25%. total nightmare . inconsistent ,odd problems ,slow ,not pulling prop,,blowing plugs. BUT i...

    Is there an easy way to do this?

    if youve been running all this time with the setup it works. normal maintenance like tubing changes should solve issues . $300 worth of tanks lol [im guessing by size and odd shape] isnt magic solve it all. dozens of records have been set with plastic tanks. it seemed you said the engine had 20...

    Radio discussion

    idk what EVERY post was so excuse if im re-stating the obvious ALL read ALL elctronics is made in china. the factory making futaba makes a dozen other radios. i think spectrum and airtronics etc. is same story. all using whatever components are the best quality/per$ for the time frame they do...

    Prop walking F hydro

    i dont see how anybody can give proper instructions without knowing type of boat . guess we go with experience. 1) proper boat wont walk and doesnt need "toes" 2) 1967,2167,967,cut down 1470 all will go stright --read 1 3)dull thick blades will walk every time 4) low power engine will walk all...

    What ever happened to...

    my OPINION -- everybody [noobs and all ] decided they had to go fast!! not learn how to drive. not learn how to tune. not learn how to setup a hull. not modify and engine. not learn how to prop a boat or mod ur props. instant fast! soo,,they all jumped into riggers...

    Forum idea for tools!!

    yea this could be good . like junkie said,it can actually be 2 for simplicity of search and esp for newcomers ,also if ur "not that deep" u wont be bogged down by the complexity in names alone of fancy tools. we can have a simple hand tool section witch could include corded/cordless wood...

    Charging Li-fe Rx packs!

    i fix electronics and a major problem is premature battery failure. low/slow charging causes all the problems. they swell and all sorts of issues. if u have any type of charger more than $30 these days there should be no issue auto charging a small reciever type cell. u basically need to charge...

    CMB 28.5 Evo

    sorry no thats not how any of that works . like was said u have to remove the piston clip and pull the piston pin . then u rotate the rod into the "position" and the crank will come out . ii cant say the position as ive only done the nitros . yea an engine with a hand removable crank pin makes...

    To all IMPBA Outboard Racers.

    ok im confused. or possibly EVERYBODY has caught the "gas-guy" disease. no disrespect to gas guys but ,,,u know. my main question - is a sport or super sport an entry level class? if so then great,,the more ideas to make things easily and cheaply available is great . if not ,,,and here is...

    Switching from 60% to 50% question...

    Big motors tolerate it better, and I don't see that much performance advantage versus plug consumption and parts breakage.... but that's just my .02 actually the opposite is true. small engines run better on high nitro. large engines it doesnt make much difference. i started with k&b and 25%...

    90 cat props

    cheesh,,some of these props are small. ur saying a .90 right? a .67 spins a p265 or oct 465 easy. in any case to make it "work" a 1667 or a 467 with some cup if the 1667 is too much lift/trouble. might have to bring the strut/prop hub just a fraction of an inch out the water
