    Scale 1/3 Scale Extra 330L Build.

    The best thing is that it is non evasive method. I have a ZDZ 80 RV with a sensor on each side of rear of the head. The engine is mounted about 20 degrees below the center line. I have the cylinder ducted and top side in the clean air flow runs 100 degrees cooler than the bottom side.

    Scale 1/3 Scale Extra 330L Build.

    I use the soft tubing 60A durometer, 1/8" x 1/4". Too bad dealing with McMaster Carr in Canada is a problem, to me they are just like Amazon Prime, order today here tomorrow. I see the MC price is $6.60 a foot for the Viton, based on my searches, the Sullivan Proflex is cheaper. I do remember...

    Scale 1/3 Scale Extra 330L Build.

    No I have not, but I don use Viton from McMaster Carr, never had a problem with 1/8" Viton and 5/32" tubing. Can't image how you split it? I use the Sullivan Viton stoppers as well. Lately I've made my own tanks out of water bottles, copper sheet and 5/32" brass tube. Cut a hole in the cap...

    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    Here is F&M 3/4" pinking tape cut with the 3 mm pinking shears. Not exact but close enough and much better than a straight cut. Thanks for the tip.

    PM Research Mini Engine Lathe Build

    Oh, I know that I was simply testing, I had to change the tool that I ground after I noticed it was cutting more like a thread. At any rate PM me your address and I will mail it to you. I didn't make the reliefs as big on each end as shown on the drawing since there was no dimension provided...

    Steven, here is the test cut. I didn't put a center in the part so the final cut should have less chatter. I can drill and ream the 1/8" hole but have no way currently to put the key slot in. I may have a 1/32" cutoff blade that could be fashioned into a tool.

    Here's what I did on the Champ and it has worked well. I like the idea of ditching the aluminum servo tray and just using the tiller arm.
