The tilt up & tilt down were meant to accommodate the airplane the engine was mounted in. Oil will accumulate in either one. My racing fuel for the Quickee was 15% nitro, 18% castor. All my Foxes...

I've never seen one of those mounted on the engine. Can't imagine why one would want to do it. I've used the VP-20 on inverted engines to combat siphoning.

I raced with the Q-500 engine. If it won't come onto the pipe the quick solution is to pinch the fuel line momentarily in order to lean it out. When it's on the pipe it draws a lot more fuel than it...

Not a Fox but maybe interesting: I had a ST S.40 ringed that I ran on Cool Power 15%. One day I got a lean run and fried the thing. I've run castor/syn ever since. Anyhoo, Indy RC was going out...

None of you guys seem to get where Duke was coming from with the .46, .50 & Eagle IV .60 engines. He tuned them for torque. To get the best out of them you had to use a big bat. Everyone uses RPM...

Hello Lou,

No criticism implied or inferred, I just thought it was worthy of comment. I haven't flown CL since the Nebraska fly-in a few yrs back, when I was an AMA RC pilot-instructor. The CL...

Too much oil, too small a prop. Duke marketed the .50 as putting out as much power as some contemporary .60s on the same props, 11x7 or 8, 12x6 or 7; they get it done there. Torque is the deal. ...

Carl,
