Gotta brag on my Aero Tiger .36
« on: June 20, 2012, 01:22:07 PM »
About 6 (six) years ago I finally finished my laser kit of the Argus. I installed a bench run, new out of the box, Aero Tiger .36. Then the plane hung on the wall until Monday morning. Yep, never saw light of day except for three quick photos.  I primed the venturi with a small shot of 10/22 GMA, flipped the prop  smartly 7 times, hooked up the glow igniter, felt for a "bump", and like John Simpson showed me, gave the spinner a quick back spin. BRRRRRoarrrrrr off went the engine for the first time in 6 (six) years. One flip start!!. Simply amazing and exactly what I have been told and have seen about this engine.  I have three and need one more..
Kudos on a fine engine Randy. H^^ y1 #^

Hi Ty,

I can concur.  Never a problem with the AT .36!  Not real fuel critical, either, just a consistent strong run every time!  I wish it could power ALL my stunt planes! (maybe I just need to start building smaller planes?) ;D
