May I ask please, flight duration and energy left in battery ?

Hi Jon, Still no joy with transfer... Can I send a cheque please ? See pm message... Please PM me..... Over

Hi Jon, did you see the pm about transfer details ?

Hi again gg, Any Cox stuff ? Td09, broken pt19 cl model etc.. Some time ago a Cox 049 fuel tank "extension" was advertised on the forum...

Hi gg, advertise them in a new thread like Jon ?

Never be afraid to have a go, as long as you don't injure yourself in the process... It will be a rewarding achievement and a good learning curve.

Complete honda c90, not even a broken lens...not allowed to even touch it as it was in the empty scrap skip. It went to landfill.........yeh, right...

What's the smallest capacity ( Cc's ) petrol 2t strinmer people are using please ? I know Kawasaki do a very neat small 18cc petrol engine one...

So, pay your £20+, £30+, go electric mega bucks, go petrol purpose made ready to go with its ignition system ( self contained CDI, or battery powered ( is there a self contained ign system like a strimmer ? ), Or if a suitable hill ( or field ) is local, go thermal or slope soaring.... Other power sources as we know are available. A rubber powered even quite large model flown in a sports hall free flight needs skill and is rewarding. Imo, all the above beats whacking a small white ball towards a pub. What ever turns you on, son. Enjoy.

Or sell up your glow engines and buy a petrol one. Os do a petrol *glow plug* I seem to recall ? Maybe an experiment if that plug will fit your engine...you may have to alter carb jet/s, needles and plumbing, but we are aeromodelers well used to having to adapt, think outside the box, over come.... You could always do as the rtf foamy brigade do, go all electric. Hope you have deep pockets... Any hills near where you live ?

Why is it recommended not to use an electric motor prop on a glow motor please ?

Blimmey, no lack of moral fibre in him what so ever ...I hope he survives to today, or at least until a good old age When the time comes, buy and wear your poppy . Some of us cannot forget...

Roger Bushnell has been in that field apparently... 200 meters from my friend house, so quite close... Pictures tommorrow... No real suprise no single *Merlin's* in the flypast today, not even a helo one. As a matter of interest, how many Merlin's are needed for an unladen Lancaster to remain aloft, and how many to be able to land ok ? Four Merlin's packing up on the same flight is very unlikely, unless..... No, no, no, no, don't tempt fate, she'l land ok...god willing .

Thanks FF, a plan view to show top of head would be good, radial serrations around *terminal post* ? I suspect not having seen the engine, a rolled alloy terminal post retention method ? Dens usually has 049 glow heads in stock, about £9 ISH plus postage, even the converted heads with suitable glow plugs, but I fully understand the desire to make a spare, seperate glow plug head . Visit cef ( Cox engines forum ) for more info and be suprised what the members there are getting up to 😁 As a matter of interest, what rpm does a smallish brushless motor using a 6 inch prop rev to ?

Hi FF, Could you post a picture of your dead Cox head please Plan view, side view and combustion chamber view please. I assume you have not started the *modification* yet ? Thanks in advance.
