ABC construction, Aluminum piston with Brass liner thats Chrome plated Dual ball bearing-supported crankshaft Dual needle valve carburetor with remote High Speed Needle Valve Dual bushing-supported connecting rod
Yes, your fuel formula is great for break in. 12X6 prop is ok too. Run it rich during first few minutes and dont run wide open for more than a few seconds. Do this for a couple of tanks of fuel, then gradually lean it out and increase the time running wide open. After a couple of quarts of fuel, run it as hard as you like, just dont lean it out too much. We all know that can quickly damage any engine. Hope this helps.
Hi , I just got a new ASP S61A,I dont have nitro ,could this engine be broken in with 25% castor & 75% mehanol,I planned to break the engine on a Bench with a Master Airscrew propeller 12 x 6 .Wll run it rich as many have said it Any system breaking in procdure or Video clicp or link would be of good help
Better running an engine in, in an plane with wings attached, it absorbs some of the harmonic vibrations better. For initial run in* short 2min runs at almost full throttle, letting the engine cool down between runs for two or three tank fulls before you get it in the air has always worked for me. Still have some 30 year old O.S. engines run in like this. Mind you havn't had them in the air for 5 or 6 years now.
I found that this motor once broken in with an 11X4-11X6.
Can turn as big as a 13X4w-13-6 with no problems. I really like this motor, leave it rich at first and then i can spin it FAST, once it's run a Gallon of fuel. 12,000-
Ok, here's the deal. I've flown about 6 or 7 tanks on this thing and can't seem to get the RPM above 8500...even had a couple guys that normally run glow help out and they're not sure why except as a group they don't like the remote needle setup. I'm running 11x6 and have tried 12x8. BOTH give me about 82-8500 RPM wide open. Engine runs great, starts right up, just can't get the RPM up!
glow engines are like gas motors they run better as they get broke in.. typically after a gallon a fuel... make sure you dont run it lean be sure to run it rich while breaking in. hope this helps and hope your motor picks up!
I noticed on the "other" S61 - without the remote needle - that someone said this was basically a knock-off of the OS .61FX, just a bit heavier. Does that mean the exhaust pattern is the same? I'm hoping to put a Macs tuned pipe on this thing and just curious to find this out.
The remote needle valve ... is it complete ? basically I'm asking what I need to install this engine. I considered the standard carb set-up but it's hogher priced than this one .. why ? With standard carb set-up - all I need is a suitable glow plug and she's good top go - is that true of this one ?

JuanchoRC The most important point is your ability and skill, you can make lots of things fly if you have these 2 things. I suggest the simulator to hone these skills if you do not have anyone to train you first.
I wish you good luck.
also this is a very good motor ASP S61A Two Stroke Glow Engine w/Remote HS Needle Valve
hi will swing both 2 and 3 blade prop when useing 3 blade you need to go down one size from largeest prop recommend in instructions and down by 2 in pitch
I just got remote needle valve assembly. My original Asp 61 was the one without the remote. I know the remote attaches to back of crankcase but should original needle valve on carb be taken out and if so what covers the hole? or can the needle valve on carb just be left in place and opened up fully so the adjustments can then be made through the remote?
On my old one of these, you just tune the remote needle valve only - mines in a fully cowled 57" wide Yak54, and I have the needle valve extended up through the cowl with an extension rod, and it works fine for tuning.
Sir I know they do this. It is because the engine is heavy. The extra boxing is to make sure that the engine arrives in great condition. Hobby King have been doing this a long time and know how rough the mail can be. It is in your best interest to have the do what they do. I hope this helps
the extra boxing is only on this motor asp 61 is 1026 gms no extra the remote needle cab is 1039 gms plus 379 gms extra packing the same with master airscrew on any size extra packing it just does not make sense .
as kellyann said it's to protect the motor as it is physically bigger than the .52 mine came well packed and with no damage, plus having to go to the 2kg limit for ups i just added a few extra things i needed for the build, very happy thanks hobby king
300grams Extra for tho weight of remote needle but they forget to subtract the weight of the needle missing from the carby (they can be sneaky little devils)
Anybody knows why my engine has a very slow acceleration from idle to full throttle?http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/im ages/em_cry.gif My OS 46fx responses very fast.
your low needle valve, located within the throttle arm on the carb, is too rich. lean it only one eigth of a turn at a time. yhere should be no gurgling when acc quickly. also if your engine is not broke in completely, it may be ness to wait. also your altitude has alot to do with it. i live in colorado, when i first moved here all my o.s. engines were perfect but here all had to be re adjusted.
Still in stock 7 left 31/1/12 I got mine last week, ordered when they came in and only 7 left so be quick. outstanding value for money ( unless you get a bad one )
Maybe a stupid question... Are engine mounts the same size? I have my first rc plane with a .40 and I was wondering if I could drop this .61 in to give it some more "fun"?
the mounting holes on a .40 are smaller and placed closer together than the .60, but you should be able to put a .60 on your plane if you purchace a new engine mount to suit the .60
as i understand it the motor mounting holes are wider and so is the width of the crank housing, so you need to purchase a new engine mount of the same size as the proposed motor u are going to use.....
Hi an ASP 61 Four stroke would be very nice in your cub. I have a supercub of similar size running the 4 stroke 61 and it performs very well. Cheers Dave.
Motor muito bom,recomendo a todos essa marca, j meu segundo motor ASP, o primeiro foi um 4 tempos, Muito forte, perfeito! Obrigado HobbyKing!!!
