Maestro, a drum roll if you please... Ladies and Gentlemen! For your amazement, edification, and enjoyment; we present: The New Navigation Menu! (ta-da). For those saying "waaa?", that's the left-hand side bar that stays in place as you wander over these web pages. And for those who have noticed nothing different yet, it haschanged, really. The new...
I'm sure that everyone who loves model engines would be aware of the name Peter Chinn, and will be saddened to learn of his passing on April 7, 2005. Peter, whose writings span about 50 years in the modeling press on both sides of the Atlantic, was born on July 2, 1921. He, and his brother, began aeromodeling before WW II, building stick and tissue...
The Cirrus is really starting to take shape now. Only one more major component to make, namely the cylinder head. After that, it only (only?!) needs a squillion fiddly little things, like pistons, rings, valves, guides, rockers, tappets, rocker perches, manifolds, etc, etc. However, rash commitments made to Model Engine Builder—surprisingly, made w...
Brian Perkins reports that he can no longer find sufficient excuses to delay final assembly of the Bristol Hydra he's been building. This will be a tedious and complicated task; first feeding parts into other parts in a sequence that does not prevent later assembly of a vital component, then getting everything that turns to do so freely, and withou...
This very attractive looking engine is being produced in the Czech Republic by ZDZ Modelmotor and marketed in the USA through RC Showcase. The Morton M5 is not exactly small, having a total displacement of 15cc. In comparison the red cylindered beast is a whopping 400cc!!! (it's modeling Jim, but not as we know it). There have been four door family...
Unlike the faux Enya Twinthat appeared here some time back, we believe this one will actually run. It's based on K&B components. One neat feature of the cylinder design for this engine is all the transfer porting is cast into the removable cylinder, and since it has a symmetrical bolt pattern, the head/liner can be positioned anywhere. The two case...
The shipping was the easy part (says MEB editor, Mike Rehmus), it was the arrivingthat was hard. Poor Mike consigned issue #1 to the tender care of the US Postal Service at the end of March. This was a very public event with Mike emailing charter subscribers to let them know, then ducking brickbats on numerous web groups as the weeks (yes, weeks) d...
This is a reproduction Sky Charger built by—wait for it—Les Stone (just how many engines have you built, Les?). The castings for this engine were produced and sold by erstwhile SIC editor/publisher, Robert Washburn. At the time, Bob was writing for Home Shop Machinist and it was the lack of editorial interest there on IC engines in general that led...
While this is an old title, I felt it was appropriate to review it this month as the author is none other than Peter Chinn. This book is a collection, distillation, and expansion of material that Peter had contributed to Model Airplane News—quite reasonable when you understand the connection between that magazine and the publisher, "Air Age Inc" (r...
This month's engine is a bit of a lame duck (the review itself, not the engine, I hasten to add). We know they are Spanish. We can see they are well made, with a certain 60's era look to them. Other evidence indicates that the ZOM line was diverse: diesel, glow, R/C and conventional carburetion, but that's about it. If any reader can shed some ligh...
