Which One

[DarthRigger]

Guys what seems to be the choice in 12 motors these days.I have been away for about 9 months and lost touch with what is working.

I have my interest and heath back so thought I would give it another whirl.

Roy,

Your propeller is on the way,and we are playing with the Team Orion Wasp Rev 12 engine.

It has great power and RPM for a 12 motor. Cost is the only drawback aprox. $300.00

which is a lot of cash for a 12 motor.

Happy To Hear You Are Feeling Better,

This one seems to be popular and the price isn't bad: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti00...I=LXUJ72&P=

Look around in there and they have others that will do the job too.

OS TZ12, shimmed 0.020, carb 6.5mm opening, 60% nitro.. Cut off all but 4 cooling fins.

Sounds like you're getting the right prop.

Buy lots of plugs.

Anthony,

Why would you need a lot of plugs? We are still burning the first one on our set up.

You may want to check your carb setting or head clearance?

What plugs are you using? :unsure:

Good Luck,

Mark Sholund

What prop are you getting from Mark?

Don,

It is a 1440 B/C @2.8" of cup and the diameter reduced to 38mm aprox.

We have tested a few other propellers that may work even better,but with

a foot of snow today, it doesn't look like much more testing this year. Our

little 12 motor runs real well, once we figured out the correct size carb. & pipe.

Have A Good Holiday Season,
