Hey Guys,

Does OS make a good pipe for this engine?

Thanks

I did a good amount of my breakin yesterday on my .21 VG mated with an Ofna 086 pipe.

So far it felt good, I know I am not opening it up full yet, but using the breakin instructions in the manual I haven't had an issue. It fires up at a touch of the flywheel and idled quite well. With the pipe, it felt like the power was just waiting to come out.

Can't wait to finish up the breakin and really get this vehicle going.

My friend ran the RG and tried a JP2. It did not perform as well as it did with a low end pipe like the JP-1 I think that this engine is much like the RG so i would go with a JP-1. The VG is a good solid engine to start with.

Well its raining today so none.... But i plan on idling the first tank then blipping the next 6 - 10 around the yard keeping an eye on the temps. The proceed to tune from there.

I got the engine and the JP-2 pipe. I received the 8ight yesterday and I am going to start working on the kit today.

Ive never purchased a NEW engine before this one and i was impressed with the manual as well as the packaging, i'm itchign to fire it up, It also has a tremendous amount of pinch

Whats the common thought on the hairdryer trick these days? Good/ bad?

I used to fly R/C Airplanes and most of my engines were O.S. The instructions, quailty and packaging are always top notch. I am looking forward to trying my first OS surface engine in the coming weeks.

If its warm outside (I did my 1st breakin part around 60 degrees) it should start up find. This engine at the stock settings fired up immediately on me and had no idling issues. Very impressed.

I am working on changing my clutch configuration as the flywheel loosened up (I think I have the wrong collet on) so once I do that, I will run it again and finish the breakin.

Yes. I just picked one up and ran it all day on Sunday. No issues what-so-ever.
