New 8 scale petrol class engine possible
There is this petrol engine now:
Dynamite .31 Gas Engine (5.1cc) w/CDI And if it fits 8 scale onroad chassis it will be possible to run a CDI engine on petrol. Has anyone tried this in a 8scale chassis and what are the results. Looks like this could be a nice "trouble free tunable engine option" class with affordable fuel and better runtime`s. |
The RPM is limited to 30.000 due the ignition system. The huge torque makes it possible to use a different gearing but you do need to have such gears to make it competive.
In the 1/10 there are some conversions to 4-stroke which do come with different gears, the OS FS26c is most used. In the 1/8 buggy you can find conversions with the OS FS40c http://www.rctech.net/forum/offroad-...opment-83.html And there are also diesel conversions. http://www.davisdieseldevelopment.com/index.htm |
This is a 2 stroke engine with high power.
http://radiocontrolledshop.ie/cars-e...-dyne0505.html The vid with a 8 scale offroad looks like enough power also for onroad. Its fairly new i think so maybe not on the market just yet. probably nobody tried it yet. http://radiocontrolledshop.ie/cars-e...-dyne0505.html |

Well they cant be winners right out of the box dude. Sometimes you have to break a few eggs to learn how to make an omelet! I hope that with time comes a better design, as it would help a resurgence of the nitro class for sure!

been reading it, and i agree with you guy`s. Hopefully they will resolve these gremlings and get this engine durable.
Its real promising though also for 8th scale onroad i think. |
It better be electronic ignition that can map timing via a ESC and a crank sensor or we're going backwards. Then add an injector to map fuel as well, KERS on the flywheel and the future seems bright!
