they have what was the blue head paloma motor as its extra long stroke. the orange paloma had the same stroke and bore as the p5,btt etc
|
Can't find it anymore on novarossi direct... the engine itself, I mean.
Anyone have a P/S for sale laying around? Don't have the extra $100 to throw around for the new coupling set... |

My Paloma has an idle issue that I can't seem to figure out. It'll start no matter what somewhat high with the wheels spinning... then about 45-60 seconds in they'll stop spinning and I let it warm up to operating temp. After I'm at operating temp (at least 220F), I can give it any kind of throttle and let it go back to idle, which it'll then idle high for 15-20 seconds, then go down to it's normal idle. It's somewhat common from the searches I've done, but I can't lean the LSN any further. I can find the perfect point for my LSN before it starts lean bogging on bottom end... Should I be leaning out the top end and then going from there?
This engine holds a tune so dang well, it starts within a second every. single. time. Stays running, too, even with a bad tune. 41001/9886 combo, #6 plug, 8mm carb insert. Fresh air filter. 25/9 VP fuel. |
Does anyone know where to find a crank for the limited? 85009 i believe

what do you guys feel are good temps for these engines relative to power?
Right now still working on tuning this and at the mains for our race saturday was coming off at like 215 or so. I wanted a bit more overall power, but maybe I am spoiled by too much turf racing (1/10) and 1/8 e buggies power delivery lol. |
250° is a good range, well that is what I try and achieve. But it also depends on how the engine sounds, so you might end up at 260° or even at 240°
|
Thanks! Yeah the engine runs well, starts very easily too. I wish my first foray into nitro was like this lol.

Does anyone know the factory carb settings?

If you can make it startable you should be able ti tune it, if you can not make it start then there is something wrong. |
I put it on a crono rs-5 and got it from someone else. Don't know where it should be to start with. It won't even start where it is now
