Thanks, Bob - I wonder if Horizon handles engines that have been obviously crashed? Guess I'll give them a call.

Well, it finally happened - I had a fairly severe crash - I wiped out the fiberglass center section of the H-9 Corsair I have been toying with for over a year now due to a 7-77 engine flame-out at a...

I just re-installed the 7-77 into my repaired H9 60cc Corsair and will be using the Keleo exhaust ring. I noticed some interference with the main needle valve - will rubbing the ring cause any...

Hi Dave - You're going to love the radial. Mix your 17% with a gallon of methanol and it'll take it down to around 8% which should be pretty good. My engine's broken-in and am using 7% of homebrew...

Although I have the ring, I had trouble at first trying to get the engine to rev much about 3000 rpms - it would act like it's starving for fuel. Someone (on this forum I think) suggested enriching...

Thanks, Tom - you hit the nail on the head - I opened the idle needle about 1/2 a turn which was too much and then backed off 1/4 - tweaked it a bit more and it sounds like a different engine - 90...

Looks like a great way to avoid the cost of glow fuel (although mixing your own doesn't cost too much - I get methanol at $3 per gallon and some Klotz makes for cheap fuel) - I have a few engines...

Thanks, Tom. Although I haven't looked at the idle adjustment yet, I'll give that a try. I have a little over an hour on the engine right now and it certainly sounds (to me) like fuel starvation -...

Dear Maxam - I have read the 777 forum almost entirely and have learned a lot! In fact, I ordered a small (quiet) aquarium pump based on your posts - the air movement to evaporate the water sure...

I did choke the engine pretty hard. When I first turned the 777 over, it felt like a rust bucket, right out of the box. It's as though they forgot to oil it after the "20 minute" test run in India....

Wish I was in Florida right now (it's 20 here in Penna) - I'm also in the process of breaking in (I hate that term) a new 777. So far, I have about 25 minutes on it and I can feel a big...

The engine was purchased directly from Horizon Hobbies. Rather than return it, I guess I'll continue with the break-in (I hate that term) procedure - I suspect there was some surface rust somewhere...

I have a brand new (never been run) Evo 7-77. I decided to be sure the valves were set correctly - some seemed ridiculously loose. I have removed the plugs, mounted a blank prop with a spacer, and...
