Setup Tips

 

Engines

  1. New Engine Break In- We suggest Lawn Boy Ashless non-synthetic for the first 4-5 gallons at 32:1 mix.  Please take this to heart.  Your rings will seat better in the bore and your engine will break in more smoothly than if you skip this most important step.   Then switch to  Amsoil synthetic blend (Dominator racing oil 50:1 or Sabre Professional  (ATP) 100:1).  Follow mixing directions closely depending upon which synthetic oil you choose.  After break in, we've been running our engines on Amsoil exclusively and you just can't find a better blend.

  Need Amsoil for your engine? Amsoil is distributed in the US through their private dealer network. Rockin' Rick is an Amsoil dealer and will ship to your door anywhere in the 48 States.    Dominator and Sabre Professional grades are in stock and ready to ship to you. Contact him through our contact links page to place an order.

  2. Mufflers VS Canisters- Now here's one we could debate all night.  We suggest that you outfit your large scale planes with canister exhaust systems. Yeah, Yeah, I know, the darned things are outrageously expensive and add more weight to the plane than the stock muffler systems.  Noise abatement is a big concern at a lot of the fields now due to encroachment by developers.   This is also a very touchy subject with a lot of clubs, especially those who aren't very fond of Large scale planes. Therefore, it is our opinion,  that canisters are the way to go... now and in the future.

  4. Servos- Now here's a subject that could be debated all night.  Who's got the best on the market?  Well, as I said, that's truly a matter of opinion between the JR and Hitec crowds.  We've been using both the Hitec HS-5995TG, Hitec HS-7995TG,  and the JR 8711's on the control surfaces of our planes.  All of these servos do perform well for large scale applications and the JR 8711's are truly the strongest right now.  I wouldn't recommend using anything weaker on your 35-43% planes.  We believe that it is better to have more Oz/In. than is recommended on the control surfaces than cutting it down to the minimums.  At least 3-Highest torque servos on the rudders and why don't you add that extra one for the ailerons and elevators while your at it?  Of course, your hobby dealer is going to love you when you place your order, but you won't have any problems when it come to control while in the air.
