Posted by Myron Beaumont on 23/03/2010 20:46:09: Ben How do you "Just delete the bits you don't want" Not so "simples" for me ! Yes I am computer illiterate .You all talk a different language from me Meerly Grumpy ! press quote under the post your wanting to take quote from . then click your cursor to pacle you want to delete and use backspace . you guys must be kidding aint ya lol any way . miles of op topic . i ran the engine today and flew a few tanks out of it . i ran 10 % then 20 % never ran backwards today tho and i had a play with glow plugs . i ran hot plugs and medium and cold . and i burned out a two mediums and one hot so i guessed engine was running to hot ran a cold plug that seemed ok but one of them went . but i was experimenting with richness and leaness . heli and engine in question is os 32 and raptor 30 v1 . the heli just doesnt seem to have that much power . it could just be me as am used to electric helis . did a few loops and rolls and stal turn nowt exciting really but was frightened to take it inverted to much cause i aint sure how much power the thing is ment to have .

Posted by Timbo - Administrator on 23/03/2010 12:28:08: As you suggested Peter, the page two error was young Bens post after yours that caused the issue, not yours - so apologies. However simply removing the underlined/bold text from his post had no effect - I suspect he copied and pasted incorrectly from another doc?Ive cleaned things up, and have re-posted your page one contribution so it should all make sense again now. You thought it was your overly long text that caused the issue - but not so. I copied it in its entirety into Word, and used the forum paste facility to convert it to a useable format ......and its fine.

this is interesting stuff never thought a 4 stroke could run backwards. where does it take its fuel from or is it just burning unburnt suff or is it sucking vapor and fuel from tank via the exhaust presure pipework

my engine was running the correct way for 3 - 4 mins then during running started going the wrong way . anyone had that happen?pre detination from wrong plug was my thoughts causing engine reversal . what i really wanted to know was if anyone know much about this glow plug tuning and such like . i go to model shop they just give me any one . i havent really had a clue about hot cold normal plugs untill reading in to it . in this huge forum some one must have the answers and experience of matching glow plugs to fuel and such like . i heard that the incorrec t plug for fuel can make a engine run at 2000rpm less then its capable of . along with predetination it gives bad preformance . just want to hear what people have found out over the years and am sure there will be people in here that know .

heli engine not new but nearly new started with a proper started ran correct way for about 3 mins as i carried it to flight line spooled up then it blipped and ran backwards . took canopy off and just hold the starter rod lightly then it ran the right way . i know why it did i was cause by the glowplug being to hot for the fuel i just wanted to hear what people thought . and how many have had this problem in the past
