RE: New Parra T3
LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD BE A NICE ADDITION TO OUR DIESEL CHOICES...Looking at the drawing looks like the c/l needle assembly could be replaced with an r/c carb also, a pop in and clamp. CS engines/ no point in hashing thru that again martin

RE: MPjet 061D aircraft
It was $129 US from I Care RC in Canada , thought a lot for a small engine when I ordered it, but worth every penny, the muffler has a lip ( flange) that goes all the way around the exhaust stack which fits in the recess), very nice for lineup and makes for a very sturdy attachment and of course held by 2 screws that pass thru muffler into block never saw that before very well thought out martin

RE: MPjet 061D aircraft
OK all pulled the backplate and head on the MPJET 061 D the finish is amazing , not a tool mark or roughness anywhere in or on engine even the rod smooth and bushed on bottom small of course but hefty for its size, counterweight and back of crankshaft very nicely done inside bottom of case no rough spots, , the whole engines reeks of quality. These guys could make watchs. China has a way to go martin

RE: Couple of newbie questions
Tampa RC if just getting into it your best bet is Davis 1/2A for the Cox and the ABC fuel for the 40 Diesels (model) run a mixture of ether, kerosene and just like their glow brothers Castor oil or castor/syn oil blend, being compression ignition the ether ignites under heat of compression, the full size diesels of course use #2 diesel fuel using high pressure injectors and the compression heat fires it off. you should check the Davis Diesel site explains quite a bit.. Davis has been making conversion heads glow to diesel for Coxs and up in size for many quallity glow engines since 1975 or before There is some good stuff too on the Classic diesels such as PAW on many sites a quick search on google will pull it up and the "gang "here offers a lot of good tips Take the time and review the posts here on the diesel site have fun martin

OK Group finally hit the local hobby shop to pick up bits and pieces or hardware and a few props. They had a really nice chipmonk built up ARF ( not foam) for a 400 size electric motor, wingspan is only 38 inchs wonder if big enough for the 061MP jet it would be hot in the air martin

RE: 2nd FP 10 up and ok
Chris too make sure the holes were deep enough ran a 2.5 mm tap thru, not really needed just a check the 2.5 x 8mm perfect fit and you can get them firmed down nice and tight , both engines done the same. I just repaired the broken throttle arm by slipping a thin piece of aluminum tubing over the broken arm slipped in the broken part flattened with a plier use some ca glue to fill the gap and glue and it works the EZ connector was then put on, looks sleezy but it worked would like to get a new arm however martin footnote I put the screws in the casting ( no head) and they went right to the bottom so length is right
