Engine MP Jet .061

I was watching this engine, and they indicated a couple of videos, including one of Rusty's, then I see two positions of the cylinder cover, in the same video the cylinder cover is initially placed correctly as it comes from the factory, and immediately afterwards the cylinder lid is seen in the same video in another position.
I do not understand exactly what happens and I turn here and Rusty if you can comment on that detail, because the video is very interesting.
Thank you!

I'm curious too Mauricio, that doesn't happen by accident.

Great running engine Rusty, leaned out pushing 21K.

The head part with the cooling fins is a clamp that holds an insert with the glow plug. As the clamp is held by for screws you have a total of four different possibilities of placing the head. Rusty then at one point forgot about the rotation and put the fins across the airflow...

I have one where I have enlarged the RC carb a little, it will spin the APC 5.7x3 at +21000 rpm on 10% nitro. It is great little engine... Smile

It is evident that this engine was already presented in the forum through Rusty, here I found the thread and also his answer:
