Those websites haven't change for the last ten years, if I remember correctly. I.e. they look the same now as they did before Webra closed down. I wonder what would happen if one actually tried to...

I have one ASP .15XLS (blue head) that was a little stiff in the bearings at first but it now makes about 15000rpm on an APC 8x4 and 18500rpm on an APC 7x5. A usual nowdays(?) the problem lies in the...

Most modern .15 engines will spin an 8x4 at around 15000rpm, and that is also what Fox promises that the engine should do.

As a comparison, a Cox Conquest RC (with stock muffler) will spin the...

If you check the exhaust timing you see why they are so timid, I guess they were only meant to be sports engines. It is a little strange when they have the large machined transfer ports and double BB...

The main thing to consider with the Fox .15 BB is the fact that it is a traditional design, with a lapped piston in a steel bore. This means that it does need the fuel of that time, with lots of...

RE: Club FOX!

The JB weld will hold on to the end of the pinbolt, exposing a few threads, so no problem there. On other engines and small props (revs in the 17krpm range) I've typically seen a gain of around...

RE: Club FOX!

The idea with a replaceable prop bolt, like on cox engines for instance, would help in a crash and does not affect the inner part of the crank if it is not made to go straight through. I don't know...

There are even engines that are smaller in...

RE: Club FOX!

Thanks for the 07RC instructions, I haven't seen them before.
Wasn't sure what kind of revs they are meant for but 15krpm should be fine then.
