Re: The resurrection of the frankenplane
Thank you, the hardest part is done, I still have to test the engine and install the controls Today I did some test with two diesel engines But not very conclusive The mix is not effective for cox engines m'y webra With a drop in the air intake try to Starts right away the cox engine Has only made a little effort Let's say some fart I have an old plane that I want to use diesel engine wit its m'y new irvine .40 Before starting to rebuild this plane, I want to test diesel mix See if I can make it work Disappointed that the cox engine is capricious and difficult to operate wit diesel Surely I can improve the fuel recipe

I was able to correct the engine bent back con rod and crankchaft pin wit a Good hit on top of the piston inside cylinder
