Thunder Tiger 25 Pro
« on: May 01, 2017, 07:16:39 PM »
I am wondering if a Thunder Tiger Pro 25 RC can be made to run well for stunt.  Any comments appreciated.

Thesellfit . i usedaFox 19 / 25 schneurle C/L intake whitlled downamil.to fit. Itbigga.

Ittsableedyballrace 25FP . CLONE .





Will Go FOREVER on reasonable fuel . A old Tornado 10 x 6 worn down 9 1/2 worked well , with a 7.25 mm fox intake & Taipan spray bar ,
that leaked air ! Sealing it stuffed up the run ! . Figure it was a ' emulsification jet ' set up . !

runs great in a wet 2 , and makes huge  power, both  the  ball bearing and plain bearing versions

Do they use the same NVA as FP and LA?

How are they in comparison with FP and LA?

Are they good Fox 35 replacements?

A wise man would drill the case & spot face it , for ' central ' nva , If he didnt have a fox intake & taipan NVA that leaked so it burbled superbly .

How are they in comparison with FP and LA?

Freer Spinning .

When youve done a touch & go on the Concrete resivoir when its blowing ( trike gear ) and the downforce trims the prop , yea .  S?P

The Phantom which was a Bjornwall Mustunt , 50 in. wing , weighed 47  Oz . tho I usually used 55 Ft of .018 regularly flew in 18 Kt plus winds,
even in a 30 knot. though this isnt really ' relaxing '. It chewed about 10 gallons of whatever you tipped in it , and Still Goes .

It got up to 50 Oz and had a few lawn clippings stuck to it , so I gave it a ' quick wipe ' with a rag & petrol , which took most of an hour ,
as it had got a bit sluggish .

It NEEDED the Tornado Black 9 x 4  wind over 18 Kts, to stop acting like a teathered seagull . Would tow 67 ft of .016 in the calm , tho a bit slack .

Theres a load of tripe on it in the N - 30 thingo .



I think the secrete here was the whole fuel load was inboard of the needle , so youd set it so it didnt go dry overhead -
lower you went , richer it got .

The 36 Oz I - Beam suckers'd have to be ideal . I used a K&B 3.5 muffler can with one outlet bunged nailed on , usually .
A Toungue strangled it a bit . You get a bit marginal at times , so you learn energy conservation , timing &  S m o o t h
flying ,
so it teaches you a lot .

Id think a toothpick 10 x 5 , like a Master black thing , about right . But any 9 , or 10 trimmed if it bogs down , worth trying .

The black tornado 9 x 6 & 9 x 4 would be ideal , when it blows a bit thereabouts .

The First Run on my motor was lean on a 40 Deg. day .  :P Id though ' thats buggered it ' as it had loosened off a bit .
Its a bit looser still after 10 Gals plus , some ' running in ' which we learned has METAL POLISH rather than Extra Castor ,
Which probly did it the least good .

SO , its the Matchless / A.J.S. 350 , of Stunt Engines .

NOW YOU KNOW >  mw~ .

Thanks to all of you.  I missed buying a new one on Ebay. It went for $27.50.  I tried the last 30 second bid but still got outbid.  That's the way it goes.
