Hi Gil,
Well my first suggestion is to set it up just like it was running a pipe. Been told to do that with my PA's that I plan to use a can muffler on, so it seems it's all the same as far as set up.
Then go from there.

Maybe just a tad more pitch on the prop non-piped. I think the RPM's are just a bit less, maybe +.3 pitch or something like that?
Glad to be back on board here after too long an absence!

Howdy Gil,
I'm running mine with rear exhaust muffler on Lou's Brew 18% all synthetic with 1 oz of Randy's Aero One. Mine is on Gieseki Nobler @44 ozs. 5 oz uniflo-no pressure. Thunder Tiger 11x4.5 prop @9200rpm at release. I am running a strong 4 cycle and love the run. This engine DOES NOT LIKE CASTOR!!! Ask me how I know HB~> I really like mine and it is now a flip and fly motor.

Guy's. sure do appreciate the answers, Z man are you running 10% nitro?
Sure do 'ppreciate the help, guy's...Thanks again y1

Correct. 10%. I could probably run less, just haven't ever tried. I used pieces of stockings over the venturi to get the desired break. Also, I made a spigot type venturi that seemed to smooth things out alot too.

Z, I sent ya' a p/m...

I haven't run them with mufflers, but the 18% synthetic, 10% nitro works fine with pipes, as do the socks and spigots.

Superstition has it that if you put a piece of women's stocking over the end of the venturi, your RO-Jett will run better. I do it because people with good-running RO-Jetts do it, but having to have women's undergarments in my toolbox is another reason to go electric.

Speaking of the 8th Air Force, my WW2-pilot neighbor just gave me a big bottle of Irish liqueur for helping him change his tire. A great generation indeed.

Howard - Dont add that to the Fuel - despite what people say it wont help the engine perform better - AND if you have ladies underwear over the engine your just asking for trouble.. n1

Gil,
Our local Victoria's Secret has a RO-Jett section with a variety of styles. Just go to your local store and ask >:D

Hi Gil,
I ain't sure about the "underwear" part, but bits of pantyhose held on the venturi by an "O" ring makes a great air filter/restrictor! More layers gives the effect of smaller venturi size.

Howard,
You should know by now what belongs in women's underwear!
If not then your assignment is to discover! LL~
By the way, the silk stuff is finer!

Some would consider that a plus.
