I post photos asap.

Here its guys! Tsunami's new engine!
Fred, you're my new best friend! Apologies for the delayed pictures,
took me awhile to figure it out. Bling indeed.

I showed this engine to Paul Gibeault. Here's His reply in part after seeing it. I hope he doesn't mind.

Kevin,

WOW, that's nice!

BTW, Nelson offers his plugs in 2 types: Hot & Cold. I only use the cold plug presently, but use 35% - 65% nitro fuels. I do like the idea of the turbo plugs because they are offered in many heat ranges. They worked superbly in my Cl. 2 mouse racer.
The only problem is that just to buy one of each heat range will end up costing you ~$100! Ouch.

I look forward to hearing how it runs this season.

All the best.

Cheers,

Paul

Tsunami.

Close up Shot. May need a bigger bladder tank to hold the extra nitro.

Kevin, ever since I saw how you built and then painted the Tsunami here and on Stunt Hangar, I thought three things.
1. That plane needs a screamer on front like a serious combat engine in Ken Cooks Avatar...the very beautiful Shuriken



2. Dang I don't have one...BUT!! I do have a pretty sharp Cox .051

3. Perfect stocking stuffer and will really look cool on Kevin's Tsunami

Fred, I actually like the exhaust note of the Tee Dee more.

Also, if your a Tsunami fan, be sure to check out all the Tsunami videos I uploaded to You Tube. Its called the Walt Brownell channel, named after the guy that donated a huge amount of videos for the project. Just click on the playlist.

Kind regards.

Kevin.

They dont come better than Fred, world needs more like him.

Kevin,

Very nice build and your smile really makes it worthwhile. Fred is one of a kind. I owe him a phone call as I believe I missed one.

If and when you fly that circle burner, please keep us updated. Enjoy!

It will be awhile for videos. Currently temps here are -28f. Brutal.

What nitro content should I run? I know to run 20% half castor half synthetic, but not sure what nitro % to use. Thanks in advance  guys. Apologies for extra pics, still learning.

20 to 25 percent nitro is good.
