RC Gas Power Truck Problems?
i Have 2 gas powered trucks one is a Duratrax Maximum ST with a Torq.12 Engine and one is a older Kyosho Rampage with a older O.S Max CZ Engine on it now my torq.12 piston rod broke off and i cant get the piston out of the sleeve what can i do is this why it broke 2nd the o.s max is fine but i cant get it to keep running somtimes it starts and runs for a sec or 2 what can i do what kins of glow plug does the o.s max cz engine take and where can i get parts for the Kyosho Rampage
It's a very long time since I had anything to do with glow motors, but let's try.
It sounds like your torq .12 has siezed, was the oil mix correct?
I wouldn't worry about getting the piston out of the sleeve, it and the sleeve are probably U/S anyway. Is this sleeve pressed/ cast/ shrunken so it's part of the crankcase casting, or is it a separate part? If separate, I would be replacing the sleeve, piston, and rod all, and check on the crank journal, it could show damage also. It almost sounds like a new engine might be a better deal.
If it needs separation anyway, try dropping it into hot water and then try again to remove it.
My experiences with glowplugs? Well, is it cutting out when the glowplug is disconnected, or with the juice on? It should be impossible to cut out if still powered, you probably have a fuel feed problem. If the OS has a reed induction valve, it might be stuck open by some debris.
Otherwise look at everything from the tank on.
If it cuts when the juice is off, well, glow plugs can be cantankerous things. I often used to find that even changing the plug for one that had previously given me problems would get me running for that day.
The element has a coating of platinum, or is of platinum, the reason is that when hot, the platinum will continue glow when subjected to alcohol fumes. If plated, the element may burn off the platinum and become useless.
Sometimes picking the element with a pin will position part of the element closer to the combustion chamber and make a non- functioning plug work, at the risk of breaking it.
Pretty obviously I don't know what plugs are available these days, so can't help with either that subject or as to where to buy Kyosho parts.
Have fun.

Between Gas And Electric RC Helicopter
Rc helicopter has become one of the more popular "boy toys" that hit and hit big. Its popularity is not surprising at all. Imagine fulfilling your dream of flying an aircraft without spending too much. And most of all: without leaving your foot off the ground. Now that's a good plus factor if you simply don't want to risk your life flying with a spinning rotor above your head.
Rc helicopter usually come in either gas or electric powered. Here are the things you should know about the two:
Electric rc Helicopter - If you are a novice rc enthusiast, then the most advisable thing to buy is the electric rc helicopter. The reasons are simple. Electric rc helicopter is simpler than other types of rc helicopters especially the gas rc's. With the electric, you don't have to deal with the engine and the gas it will consume. You would not need to have proper knowledge about mechanics just to make it fly. You don't have to spend a lot of time reader the manual just to understand how it works. And if the helicopter fails, you don't have to figure out how to fix it.
If you are thinking that electric rc helicopter would not fly for long then you should change you perspective. Most modern electric rc's are powered by lithium batteries and coupled with brushless motors. This makes it fly much longer. In fact it can out last some of the gas rc's.
And last thing: It is quiet on air thus you cannot disturb other's privacy.
Gas rc Helicopter - A more experienced rc helicopter pilot prefers gas powered rc helicopters for several reasons. One is, flying gas rc helicopter flies like flying a full-size helicopter since the sound that the engine creates can trigger excitement. Oh! You might think that it is quite absurd. But no! The sound of the engine makes it more exciting to fly. Another reason is that gas rc helicopter is more complicated that keeps its pilot more addicted with it. Why? This is because the pilot is not only limited to flying the helicopter alone. Pilot is involved with how the mechanics of the RC. This gives him more reason to become excited on the RC.
Choosing between an electric RC helicopter and a gas RC helicopter is up to you. Evaluate carefully so that you get most out of your rc flying experience.
