NIB Thunder Tiger GP-42 Engine






This is my new Thunder Tiger GP-42 Engine (No.9041). Designed using CAD computer technology. Major components of the engine are machined from the highest quality materials using state-of-the-art CNC manufacturing techniques, resulting in consistent high quality and reliability. Schnuerle porting, a special ABN type piston and cylinder sleeve, a new and easy to tune carburetor and a safe angular (swept back) needle valve. Designed for beginners or experienced modelers.

Recommended fuel by the manufacturer: 20% castor or castor/synthetic blend with no more than 10% nitromethane for break-in. The manufacurer also strongly discourage using fuel containing only synthetic lubricants during the initial break-in period.

Recommended prop:

During break-in = 10x5
Normal = 10x6

Glow plug

Operates best with a 'hot' R/C long-type plug, such as Redline R2, K&B or O.S. No. 8
