I used a dummy radial engine, in the Stinson, and cut it away, in front of the cylinders. I also made sure the exit area was at least twice the size of the entry. S "F" type plug was by far the most reliable glow plug to use.

I used an APC 16x8 prop, that lasted me for years and eventually had to be replaced due to all the little nicks and burrs it sustained. With the above mentioned prop, plug and fuel the RPMs were 8, to 8.

First you must calculate how long the box or stand-offs have to be and if you can find long enough socket head capscrews, if you are thinking of using the dowel stand-off method. The diameter of the screws should be M5 or 10 UNF. If you are using dowel, then use a "Penny Washer" at each end of the dowel. I found that any type of muffler was just not required. The sound of this RC engine has never bothered any one, in my experience. I just used the exhaust pipes and never had to extend them, although I think this is possible.

I never found it necessary to provide glow heat at low throttle settings. I did however, use a remote glow hook-up, for safety reasons, on the Stinson. It was much easier and safer to use the remote connectors, on the side of the fuselage. I have tried to provide these drawings at full scale of this super RC engine. If you click on the drawings below you will have access to a PDF file that you should be able to print on letter size paper. Take a look here for the O.

They are a "click" fit supplied for earth lead. Page 9 Make sure that glowplugs are not connected to the battery. If very strong compression is felt when trying to turn the Do not heat the glowplugs while priming. In this case, do not use force, but release the choke valve and turn the propeller clockwise slowly to Do not connect the battery to eject excess fuel through exhaust pipes.

Running-in on the ground As the speed of the engine does not instantly change with needle-valve readjustment, small movements, with pauses Start the engine between, are necessary to arrive at the optimum setting.
