Solly Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 The Webra Speed 120 is still available from WestonUK. I'm not sure whether they have the pump though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J D 8 Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 I run a Webra 61 [ not pumped ] in my vintage Bleriot XI as this was the type of engine fitted to the model by David Boddington and his team for TV film work in the 70's. Runs very well with its OS or OS type carb, a common mod as it is said the older type carbs were rather finicky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manish Chandrayan Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 That Webra is an excellent all round engine and will spin good size props. The standard carb that came with was giving me trouble so on hunch I tried the OS 7D and it fit like a charm. Thereafter the engine was one of the go to engines in my stable. The engine has a Dykes ring so you will feel no compression when turning by hand. It was also interesting to see the prop windmill on few occasions when the engine ran out of fuel and the model had to be glided in (fast) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
