The Reds carb is composite, but the entire internal assembly is aluminum, including the low speed seat and slide bore is all one piece. I am duly impressed with the quality and consistency of the Reds carb.

Ok yeah i will tighten it more thank you for helping me out. Im into this sport two years now and still learning everything i can man i bet ive watched this vid 25 times now i just love the way that thing is tuned is that the 3 port or 5?
@PKpopdU
@PKpopdU 11 років тому
the stuff around the fuel tubing is heat shrink tube.. we use that in order to keep the fuel line from cutting if someone lands on top of you (affectionately known as waffle stomp). If your filter is leaking, you need to use two pairs of pliers and cinch that dude down. The stuff on the needle housing is silicone sealant.

that particular pipe was the Orion 2058.. it works well for that engine, and it's EFRA legal for use in Europe or International competition. The bigger horsepower pipe is 2013.

yeah I saw where he switched pretty sweet looking engine! i gotta ask how do you like the composite carbs because ive always had great results on the full aluminum body carbs or does reds have a full alum carb?
@vwbeetle5578
@vwbeetle5578 5 років тому
Good clear and to the point. I agree with your video. I am a mechanic that deals with carbs all the time and this is just the same as a full size carb. These ppl that don't agree need to stick to efi fuel systems

Good tuning guide. I think a lot of people get hung up on numbers and whether it's temperature or counting turns out on the lsn or hsn or having a .7mm idle gap, etc.... forget all that and tune for performance and use your ears and eyes to tell you if you're on the right track... which is essentially what they are doing here.

I have seen and herd the werks b6 pro engines matched with either 2013 for a smoother power band or 2058 for a bit more on top end power werks pipe I currently run the os .21 xz-b speed spec 2 but really not that big of a jump from the os xz-b max blue head from what ive ran. You will get great torque and rpm out of all the engines i mentioned.

Nice vid man, I've always thought those engines look like a piece of art (never got to see one in person yet though) have a few questions about it. How's tuning it, how's it hold a tune, and will it fit on a Revo with slight modification or does Team Orion make a engine for the Revo?
@123789timothy
@123789timothy 9 років тому
buy the Os that is made for a revo. It will cost the same. Not to mention that Orion does not make a traxxas fitting engine. the Os is a direct drop in and tunes better then any engine on the market

The starter box was made by a Japanese company called S-Point. We are still trying to get them imported. They are carbon laminated fiberglass, and very light for traveling.

@PKpopdU
@PKpopdU 7 років тому
You only want to run a cooler plug in very hot conditions, like above 100f.. otherwise we always run the same plug, Reds T5C. The Reds T5C is the best plug on the market, in my opinion, in terms of durability and heat range (hot). The engine should not stop running because of the wrong temp range plug, unless you are WAY off. It's more of an ignition timing thing to advance the combustion with a hotter plug vs. colder. If people can't decide, I usually recommend the colder range to avoid detonation and subsequent engine damage from pitting.

hey paul old post i know but one of the best if not THE best nitro engine tuning videos out there still!!! I was just wondering what the shock piston/oil/ bladder settup yall are running in this video because this is a very similar style track I run and I'm driving myself bonkers on to trying different oils and pistons Im currently running front 1.3 8 hole kyosho pistons with associated 42.5 oil and rear 1.4 angle 8 hole pistons with 32.5 wt associated oil.
@PKpopdU

@PKpopdU
@PKpopdU 10 років тому
Kyosho has a big focus on R&D and quality control, that's why the cost is a little higher. Everything is made in Japan for the MP9, and you can feel that quality after you own the car for a little while. The materials and QC is second to none.

@vrcmag

Craig Woodgate when tuned right you can run all day. You will need to charge the rx battery before worrying about the engine.
@123789timothy

If you are looking for some wreckless engines to put in a buggy then you can go with. novarossi keep off .21 7 port, orion .21 crf 5 port factory tuned, werks b5 pro, alpha a852 lutz(accidentally put it in the other post should have been the 830 dragon), these are just a few .21 engines there are also a bunch or bigger displacement but if you are going to go racing one of these are the prefered engines. if you are willing though i would totally recommend the os speed .21 it is a bit expensive

THE ULTIMATE SECRET FROM WINNER RACER!! In all the videos I've watched about carburetor adjustments for nitro rc engines not a single one talks about the secret I'm about to reveal to you that makes the difference between first, second and third on the podium. The low speed must be adjusted richer than normal but the motor must still turn well between 1/4 opening and 3/4 because the needle in the center of the slide controls from idle to 3/4. From 3/4 to full trottle you can put the slide needle in your pocket and it wouldn't change the mix. The result is that when the engine is running full throttle and you release the triger quickly the engine wants air and fuel but the slide is closed so a lot of gas (and oil) goes into the engine and cools it down and lubricates it better. Think about this.. How many seconds do you keep full trottle in a race...2 or 3 seconds.. then you can adjust the high speed needle leaner than normal and gain rpm and horsepower and by releasing the trigger very quickly for a fraction of a second like before entering a curve it cools much more and the temperature of the engine will not have time to rise above 250 degrees and you have maximum power.
@vrcmag

The idle controls idle. It doesn’t control After that. Just how much fuel loads up off idle.

The buggy is a little more because it is expensive to make a higher quality buggy with better materials, all made in Japan. If you buy a different car and try to bring it up to the level of this kit, you will spend more money. (not to mention the shocks are the best in the industry)

@123789timothy
@123789timothy 10 років тому
try to heat your engine up if this is a new engine we are talking about here then your engine sleeve needs to be "broken in" just run your engine slightly rich at around 200f for a gallon or 2 and you should be fine. just make sure you warm up your engine. if this is a problem and it still gets stuck loosen and i say only loosen the glowplug a bit just so you can relieve the engine from some of the compression.
