Real Flight Trainer Edition Setup
Winter is upon us and it's time to consider virtual flying. Just purchased Real Flight Trainer version at Steam so that when Summer finally arrives we will be ready to try our hand at the real thing.

Getting in some stick time with my Spektrum DX8 so I will be ready when flying season begins. Was successful in hooking up my RC transmitter to my gaming laptop using a dongle from Amazon so now I can control all my Steam simulator games with the setup.
AWESOME SNOW BIKE
Переглядів 1273 роки тому
The first few times riding my Fat Tire Folding E-Bike on snow was a little hazardous when the front wheel skidded sideways. When I deflated the bike's tires from the normal 65 psi to 10 psi my rides on even deep snow suddenly became more stable and consequently more enjoyable.
FAT TIRE DAYMAK FOLDING SNOW EBIKE UNBOXING AND SHAKE DOWN TEST
Переглядів 9873 роки тому
With the warm weather drawing to an end I bought myself a bike for the coming snow season. The fat 4 inch wide tires on this bike are inflated to 65 psi to minimize rolling resistance but I am planning to reduce that by quite a bit and use the bike for biking on snow packed trails this coming winter. I have since tried riding on the frozen white stuff and I have to report that it was not much f...
Phatmoto Hybrid Running Like a Top
Переглядів 7773 роки тому
Loving my Phatmoto Rover these days. After a rather drawn out learning period I can now say that my bike is just about perfect for my riding style. I ride for exercise and enjoyment and I am beginning to appreciate the design characteristics of this bike such as the engine speed governor (limits speed to 20 mph), 2 wheel disc brakes and high gear ratio with a large 50 tooth rear sprocket which ...

Two Stroke Smoke Trails
Переглядів 793 роки тому
Since I ride alone I always wondered if at 30 to 1 mixture, does my 2 stroke motorized bike leave a trail of blue smoke. Ever since I discovered motorized bicycles I saw them as a fun set of wheels for anyone who enjoys the great outdoors and the wind in their face. From the outset I realized that it would have to be a hybrid powered (pedal, electric and gas) so that it would be tolerable to ot...

Phatmoto Rover II Throttle Cable Caught by Chain
Переглядів 2413 роки тому
After a successful ride I was surprised to find that the loose end of the throttle cable had become entangled in the engine some time during the ride. Hind sight suggests that loose end should have been clipped of before the bike was ridden. Little damage was incurred as a result of the incident but it could have been much worse. No fault of the bike's design just a foolish oversight of its rid...

Phatmoto Owner Recommends: Check Your Bike Before Each Ride
Переглядів 1914 роки тому
Just finished reading a post by one our Facebook members reporting a Brake Disc screw that popped out and grounded him for a while. His advice is to check of your bike before each ride for loose nuts and bolts, something which I strongly endorse after my most recent experience. After watching this I noticed how much the front fork bounces around when the engine is pulling and how smooth it is w...
My Phatmoto Opinion : IT'S THE BIKE I ALWAYS WANTED
Переглядів 1 тис.4 роки тому
I take it all back; all the negative things that I said in my last video about the lack of performance delivered by my Phatmoto Rover II and blaming it on its EPA Compliance qualities....not.....it was because I wasn't told about "the secret golden rule of the carburetor"; OFF is really ON and its corollary ON is Choke OFF." That's where it should be when you are ready to ride.

Nice what fuel does it run on?
What engine are you using?
low power
Открой иголку.
How did you set up the zoom feature to see the planes orientation?
That rear exhaust engine doesn't look like it fits in this application. You'd have been better off with a side exhaust model.
You will get a much better result with an Enya No:3 plug.
Got one JUST like that , WITH THE ORIGINAL BOX AND INSTRUCTIONS ( now I dont have to mount it and try starting it,as NOW I know what it sounds like, ) GOOD 4 YOU, SOUNDS GREAT TOO !!!! 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 THANK you!!!
The sound is so intoxicating ❤😅
Beautiful scale flying. Right On Sir!!!
Is it gas or nitro
Com o modelo Alemão Hortem, que os Americanos, copiaram e puseram fazer modelos de asas a jato em sua Aviação! Betinho Meira.
Duke Fox invented the glow plug?
I have an original kit in box still I have been waiting about 10 years to build with my son. Indont have any expertise in that field but I have plenty of knowledge. Used to fitting small parts since I tuen pens and bowls and such. Bit I have this kit I bought Yeats ago just waiting for my son to be old enough he and I can sit down and put this together together.. yeah.
I like the RCV engines that my brother bought. They worked fine every time he flew them. I could NOT however get over how weird they really were. My stomach felt weird when imagining that whole inner cylinder rotating WHILE the piston went up and down inside it. It seemed like SO MUCH extra wear possibilities let alone that whole rotating drive train gear set being so huge and a power suck. All my saito and OS 4 stroke engines would blow them away in an equal displacement comparison. oh and not importantly, they were so ugly…if such a thing could be with a model airplane engine. Saito = Sexy.
from Argentina,
hello,i have one this old engire whitout liner and piston,i make this items and jaket,my question is ,the both holes forware and read ,in the crancase,are weld?
the propeller is not suitable for these kind of 2.5 cc engines. Size is much bigger than own one.
I have every engine you have shown here. Plus a bunch of others.. I have over 150 engines
I have 2 of these. Noisy little engines.
I bought a O&R 23 engine over 30 years ago when flying control line in Van Nuys, Ca. It is in nice condition and came with a new coil, condenser, spark plug and HT lead.I ran it once on petrol (gasoline) and oil. I can't remember the percentage of oil. I noticed that the crank was quite a loose fit in the crankcase and oil leaked out behind the prop driver. Somebody told me that it was dssigned that way. Most of my engines are diesel (compression ignition) going back to the 1940s.
Mine and his are both glow engines tho I do have a O+R 60 That is spark ign. That is piston port induction tho.
Really, the phenomenon of the Russian "Night Witches" showed high moral, determination and brave of Russian women pilots fighters, when there was no GPS aviation system only compass to fly behind enemy lines in the night aviation raids. They were highly skilled pilots women.
Shes a wee tail heavy.
Cool! I just recently built my first ebike, a 2010 Trek 3700 13" frame with a diy mid drive (2 chains...one from motor to crank...normal chain from crank to rear wheel / derailleur. I am going to add another motor to the front wheel, unsure if I want to build a hub motor or something with a derailleur and gears for the front. But...I have an old unused gas weed eater out in the shed that I have been thinking about adding the engine (can't remember CC but it looks like maybe a 39CC at a glance...it is in a dark corner) to the rear wheel...the entire left hand side of the drive is free still...it is right hand drive right now. I am thinking of mounting the small engine on the rear panier rack, down to the left drive side of the rear wheel...I will have to convert my rear wheel to have left and right hand freewheel threads or use one of those spoke attached sprockets and a freewheel on the engine. That should, if I am not getting confused, get me quite easily into a hybrid gas/electric ebike. I also am in the middle of building a bicycle camper and the gas motor would give me extra power, and still let me ride when the batteries die. I am also adding one or two 25W solar panels onto the build so I won't have to plug in very often, only before long rides.
Link to more details?
Deeply in need for Overhaul...
That front wheel was not even close to balanced.😅😅
Woah, you pull start while in motion?? That doesn't scare you that it'll catch and rip the fan apart or whip the cord back in, or worse yet it slips away from your hand and catches in the spokes or chain!?!
Well one, that should've been cut down to start with and a new ferrule added to it. Soothing should be able to touch the moving parts and you should take every thing that can move in any direction and pull it towards any moving parts to check this. It looks to me you ran your throttle cable along the tank and down the seat post. This would explain the extra length at the end. I ran mine opposite the rear brake line along the bottom of the frame and only have about 1.5" at the tip. Which I covered with a ferrule and a little rubber cap that usually goes over the threaded end of a bolt after the nut is in place to prevent gouging of skin.
Perhaps fine tuning your landings would be more appropriate? Go for a main gear landing, if you learning to land, it's more reproducible and safer than 3 point, don't flare too high or too steeply, Oh! Snap!

exactly that lol
yo what the hell i have been thiink about this for months super interesting how the gas and electric in the back I was thinking gas in the back with electric hub motor up front
This is one of the most beautiful and most unique things ever, this is also really useful because you can use the electric motor on footpaths while you can use the engine on the road
HOLA, DAVID, En el video se ve que prendes ese motor al revés, por eso no te coge la calibración, estos motores se gira la elice hacia la izquierda no a la derecha, (el aire que bota debe botarlo para atrás del Motor.
Can you do that to electric scooter?
What fuel do you run in these deezils? I have a CS repro, I want it to last a long time. What is your go to mix for these little things? Nice engine by the way, works great for being made with mixed parts! Were those parts new?
Hi David, is this the 6 foot or 8 foot version?
Beautiful sounds
This is "MARS", not some MAP. Learn something!
Really bad story when RC modeller gets a diesel in his hands! Pure torturing for engine and us.
My heart sinks when I see people using electric starters on Diesels. Typical of those who do not understand the "feel" of these engines. Oh, god; I've just noticed him using pliers to adjust the compression!
The engine doesn’t know what is turning it over ! I bet you spend hours trying to get your engines going . And yes I do know what I’m talking about .

Hi ,love the video, I have the same engine but can't get it set up correctly, when I tilt back the aircraft even slightly it cuts Out! I would be grateful for any advice you can offer. Regards Danny
Could be set to lean
Excellent, really enjoyed watching it run, thank you very much for sharing this with us 😊
Love the video, thank you for sharing. I have just got a Forster 29 with the two point ignition so the information in your video was really interesting. Got the link for the video from you brilliant blog, thank you 😊
The choke was on, wasn’t it? I rode the bike around wondering why it was so slow. Choke on = choke open
