    Nice job Mark. thank you! This step by step video was essential for a WalBro Carb rebuild on a 25 year old VARIO ALOUETTE II 1:6 scale RC helicopter. I’m now Celebrating with a smooth idling engine after …… well…… 10 pulls. What a difference! Idling like never before. Side note: As I didn’t have profi punch tools needed for refitting the Welsh washers (?), I used similar sized hex drivers….. with success! I did struggle with the smaller copper fitting … mine did not come out as easily as yours. Beware. Flying this coming weekend. Regards from Switzerland

    After heavy cleaning I use WD40 on the plastics . Let it soak in for a day or so . Wipe off heavy WD . Looks brand new . Plastics love WD ! Both petroleum products.

    😳😲😲 Wow... That is so cool/awesome/insane. Your braking/suspension system is just blowing my mind. I had/was into RC when I was younger (10-12), just battery power. I couldn't afford the fuel running RC. I had no idea the RC fuel world build was this insane. What does this RC fuel world build starting cost if someone as myself were interested in getting/building an RC at this insane level? TIA... Very Cool RC.

    right so.. maybe im not the best researcher when it comes to this topic but perhaps you can somewhat answer my question: is there like a sign or something that may tell me if a motor is quote on quote worn out? cause you can't tell me with the wear and tear and stresses a motor goes through, it doesn't wear down. bare in mind, im fairly new to gas (specifically RC) engines like Zenoah or ones from Rovan.

    I had such a hard time to get the head onto the piston. It's a brand new engine, the 36cc double ring CY engine. I was removing the bottom ring before even running it. Then it was stuck. After pouring some oil in there and pulling on the pull start its turning.
