ImUrOBGYN Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 I've always wondered how much power those little motors make (who knows, maybe it's 1/4 the power of the regular size, lol) and if it would be worth making a model 1/4 scale for it to go in. If I had more money than I knew what to do with, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owndjoo Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 i prefer the scaled down top alcohol blower engines. talk about some serious power. and they are a lot cheaper too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6 Speed S4 Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 those are cool, me and my grandpa built one of those model engines but it doesnt run. It was still cool to put together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lustalbert Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Whenever I get around to getting my lathe, I am going to try to build one. 10k is quite a bit for a paper weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
