Cox Engine Tests/reviews ONLY
Ivanhoe on Wed Apr 25, 2012 10:19 am
In response to a number of forum members' requests, I'm starting this new thread in the hope that we can centralise all the Cox engine reviews, tests etc. in one place, and use the thread for that purpose only.
To this end, would members with these items please post them HERE in future?
Kim and I hope that Admin will help us out in our endevours on members behalf, by making this thread a "Sticky" so that anyone can find it without the need for tedious searches.
It would also help if members who have posted reviews or tests in other places in the Forum could find them and re-post here.

Holland Hornet Factory Mod Peter Chinn July 1960 M.A.N. and Addtional Info
Kim on Wed Apr 25, 2012 6:15 pm
Mr. Chinn's take on a "Factory Modified Holland Hornet" from the July 1960 issue of Model Airplane News.
Also, Mark's Original Owner's Manual and his explanation of the "Timer Tank" feature on some of these engines.

Here's how the timer tank worked: Fire up the bad boy, set needle, just prior to launching your plane, you'd move the wire spring (held in place by small groove) another sping around the top of tube, inside the tank (see photos) would push the tube down sealing the top half of tank off, the bottom would be full and you'd have a premeasured, predictable run time.

Posted by Kim on Fri Apr 27, 2012 5:04 am, there is no option here to store as PDF. Here's a link (until it disappears). Suggest someone with admin privileges to download, and if there is a place in the forum to store it for others to access. If you give me a link on your server, I will update below:
