Hi guys, how are you?

Nice to see that there are more enthusiastic people building their own oil submerged break-in device.

Just a short word from my side.

Meanwhile I have already had 50+ engines in my EBIS = Easy Break In System. After putting the RC engine and oil, I switch on the heating system. In my case I just have to wait only 20 minutes so that everything is stabilised at 80-90 ‘C. Then I start the transmission system and the stepper motor. After the engine is ready, I drain the oil, do a “pitstop” change of RC engine, and continue with the next one.



ALL guys were very happy with the results, it is really amazing how good it works. After EBIS break-in, on the track, here is how we do it: PRE-HEAT the RC engine with a hairdryer on the cooling head for 2-3 minutes, this is really important, so that it is really hot everywhere. This can be checked by manually checking the temperature of the chassis plate under the engine. Then start the engine. It will start immediately and run idle smoothly. Let it run on idle for 1/4 tank, the WOT for 1/4 tank. Then drive the car on the track. Make sure clutch and gear box are properly set. Just keep the engine a little bit on the rich side. Initially don't allow max RPM, but slowly increase it by dosing the throttle on your transmitter. Then within 2.1/2 tank, the engine can be set slowly but surely in race trim and it is ready to race.

I am currently very busy building the initial limited series of my EBIS system on a commercial basis. Working very hard on all of the CNC lathe parts by myself and all of the CNC mill parts will be done on a professional CNC mill. 165kg of aluminium material has been delivered, CNC milling is scheduled for next week. Then everything has to be assembled, which is quite time consuming, especially the wiring of the controller.

Last but not least, doing the break-in service is a lot of fun for me, because it is so very rewarding when after EBIS break-in give the RC engine to my RC colleague racers, without any exception, they are all so very happy. They can skip the normal break-in hussle and just fully enjoy the time at the track setting up their car for the race. Then it makes me happy seeing their happy faces.

Best regards,
Richard
