Just a bit of JB Weld and it'll be turning 11K again.

Several posts have suddenly gone missing. I have no idea what happened to them, but they only had a couple of really gross comments and no Saito advice. Well, a religious comment was made by one poster.

I've got a question about this water spinning the wrong way down under. When one has had a bit too much to drink and the room starts spinning when you make it to the bed, does it spin the wrong way too?

Hmm good question, would like to put the theory to the test if someone sends me a roundtrip ticket to Aussieland.

Pete, it appears that the the front two cylinder base bolts backed out partway than pulled out of the block. I bought the engine for cheap and moved all the guts to a new crankcase and cylinder. Foolish, maybe, but it runs really well, installed new Boca Bearings also.

Considering it runs really well and depending on the total cost it could still be a great buy!

Moonshine will make them run, you know, Real Alchamahol! They like Methanol though, and you don't want to drink that stuff, unless you have a death wish.

That's because the alcohol content is so low it is considered a non-flammable liquid!

I have purchased one of those 125's and wondering what prop to start with. Just had to see what the hub bub was all about.

The Scimitar at least doesn't flex like their GF K series does. This is the only MA I use, I do have a handful of K spares, but those are in case I break an APC and don't have a spare.

Maybe the 6 turns the same as the 8 at certain settings, but this is only a static measurement. A lot of things happen to propellers in the air. Find a 3D guy and see if he can hover the model using each prop. That will tell you a lot when he tries to determine his pull out power. Me, I was never good at that.
