Norvel .074 glow plugs

Post  coxaddict on Thu May 17, 2018 10:30 pm

I bought a few Norvel .074 helicopter engines last year that didn't come with glow plug inserts.
Found some inserts on th'bay today. One seller has 5 for $22+ shipping. The other one is selling 2 for $25.00.
Part number is 110158. Don't know how long the listings will last

Better than that is the Norvel turbo plug adapter!
I did the standard plug insert too not near the power out compared to the turbo plug.

Here are two of my test vids with the turbo plug adapter

For sport speed:


Published on Dec 11, 2017
Norvel .074  / HQ 5x4.5 carbon / Modified Heli muffler / Turbo O.S. P6 Plug / Norvel Adapter.
Static 22,771rpm / 14.81oz / .239hp / 178.3w / 97 mph / 25% nitro 20% castor
Should unload a speed ship in the upper range of 115 mph +
Stock Norvel plug did 19.86k rpm with the same prop.

For a mix of thrust and speed:


Uploaded on Dec 12, 2017
Norvel .074 / Turbo Plug / APC 6x4 / 18,653 rpm
Static 21oz thrust / .242hp / 181w / 71 mph
Should unload most planes in the 80 mph range.

High:
- heat environment / summer months
- compression
- nitro
- engine that runs hot due to few cooling fins or enclosed
- high rpm's
- fast idle
