Adam Drake yea I know the sleeve has 3 sections in the exhaust port, I know head is different to. I got some random engine parts from a friend but there all taken apart. I know sleeves heads etc are different etc. but I’m saying the spec 2 and spec 3 and Xz are different case part numbers but they look the same on the outside. Is there anyway to tell them apart?
its still awesome to see you drive an know your doing good at them big events alot of time put inn an its just nice to see you still doing it even tho its not frist at that race but nice all around thankx for the continueous top 3 if you dont win an with them younger gunz sumtime top 5 im still a drake fan even tho i run kyosho
Hi Adam, I appreciate the time you put into doing these videos. Could you please do a proper instruction on the how to tune the mid needle and the effect of turning it in or out. I "think" I have worked it out but it sure would be nice to get a proper handle on it. Please don't say just leave it alone, I paid good money to have it, so I sure as hell want the benefit of it. Thanks.
Your conduct in every video I watch from these to guys catching up with you in the pits is consistent. Your feathers are never ruffled and you seem happy to share. Good for you. I have got my 2 boys into nitro (I'm ex RC Heli) Tuning has always been my strength but these little .21 are extremely finicky by comparison. There are plenty of 101 videos on here so it would be nice for more advanced car tuning as well. Things to change for loose track or high grip etc. Appreciate you taking up the challenge on the mid needle, I couldn't imagine you have a lot of spare time to do these so thanks again for your effort.
for the record the measurements are in metric (mm), make sure you have the right mode selected on your calipers the same every time. (he didn't specify the type of measurement, digitals have both metric and imperial...
I am assuming you meant...."Flush on TOP and 1/2 to 3/4 of a turn in from flush on bottom?" Oh, also, does reducer size change these settings? Thanks so much. Hope to see you again at LCRC for the Mugen Challenge.
Flush on bottom and 1/2 to 3/4 of a turn in from flush on bottom., but with the Nova engines it can vary from engine to engine. I usually ran a 7mm reducer with that engine. See you soon!
adam have a ?for you i have a las vages edition os motor an i see these knew gold glow plugs i run the p3 is there a real difference an are the gold ones safe to use an what is the difference between them besides that there knew
Hello, it's not a huge difference between the standard P3 and the P3 gold. The P3 gold is a little more durable and will have slightly more bottom end.
Hi, Thanks for the vids they are awesome. I just broke in my new os xzb spec 3 and i noticed the front bearing is leaking fuel. I used an engine heater and all and was always between 180 -220f Is this normal or did i overprime the engine or something? I have an aftermarket 7x19x6 bearing but it has rubber covers on both sides should i remove the inner rubber cover and replace?
Hello Alex, if the engine is really rich, it can leak a little from the front bearing. I would try to run the engine at or near race tune and see if there's any problem tuning before you switch out the bearing. Yes, you can remove the inner seal on the front bearing. Have a nice weekend.
Cant believe you take the time to answer all these questions. I thought it would take a month to get an answer but you replied in a day!! You are an asset for Mugen seiki its thanks to you i run mugen. Thanks a million!!
Awesome! Drake is the King!
Thank you sir!
Hey drake is there anyway i can tell the difference between a spec 2 and spec 3 case? Thanks!
The sleeve is different and also the cooling head.

Thank you Robert! I appreciate the support. :)
Adam Drake so any trips to the barn again??
Yes, I plan on making it back to the Barn this summer.
See you there then keep up them great results
Thank you!
Hi, can i use a O.S. T-2060SC WN in my O.S. Speed B2103 Type R .21 Competition Nitro Buggy Engine?
Ya, that will work.
@@AdamDrake Thank you sir

That's a great idea. I'll add it to my video list. Thanks!

People are saying the spec 2 is better for truggy.
I like the Spec 2 over the Spec 3, but my favorite is the AD2 for buggy and truck.
@@AdamDrake Good to know, thanks!
I've noticed that some pros are using the HB Racing wing mount. What does that mount help with?
It's not a huge change, but the HB mount is lighter.
Where you the one that did a video on how to get your radio trigger to fit your finger with a soldering iron?
I don't remember if I ever did a video on that, but I've used that method many times.

Good point. :)
ok thank you an see you got a good result in tha race over seas nice
Thank you!
Any chance you have some ballpark numbers for your NR Drake Edition? Thanks!
Flush on bottom and 1/2 to 3/4 of a turn in from flush on bottom.

Thank you for the reply an glad you did good over seas
Are you putting the caliper inside the screw groove or the outside? Thanks
It's not inside the screw groove. Just next to the groove, on the surface of the screw.
To the outside or head of the screw.
Correct. Thanks.
Hey Adam, would you consider those needle specs to be close for the spec 2 as well ?
Yes, it will be pretty close. I'll do a video for the Spec 2 as well.
This was really interesting Adam awesome tip make one do the b2102 :)

Adam what is the best nitro engine you personally likes to run on the track
I prefer the new O.S. Speed B21 Adam Drake engine for both truck and buggy.
Hi Adam. One small question: how brutal spec3+2060 combo for buggy is?
It has a lot of power, but not brutal to drive. Ronda really likes the Spec 3 in buggy.
Hi Adam, is the 2060 or the 2090 Exhaust better for Spec3 in Buggy? Greetz from Germany :)

Hi Adam. Are these high end engines easier to tune than lower cost engines?
Yes, OS engines are easy to tune.
@@adamdrake8006 sounds good.
Thanks👍
