sunny1975lucky Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Schumacher R18 HSN - 2-4 turns out LSN - 3-41/2 turns out IDLE 0.75mm open is there a more accurate setting for this engine as this seems a bit far apart i currently have mine set up at hsn 3 turns out lsn at 3.5 turns Hi Grovehead. I asked the guy in my local model shop if he'd check the needle settings on an unused rascal engine and the settings he gave me where HSN 3 turns and LSN 3.5. I'm using 16% fuel and so far i've leaned the HSN to 2.5 turns which works for me. I've just put the LSN back to 3.5 turns after I struggled to tune it. I'll have another go on sunday. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay_nation Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Hello All, Having run in my new Kyosho DRX looking to set the carb and engine to best settings. Should I follow the manual or does anyone have any experience with the GXR18 engine or car? Thanks JP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil-M Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 SETTINGS FOR THE...................................... FORCE R36 (5.9cc) Your high speed needle is normally about 3.5 turns out from fully closed. The carb should be a millimeter or so when brakes are fully engaged and at neutral. The low speed should be proud so about half a millimeter out from the casing. * Thanks to Modelsport for the great customer service and finding these setting's out for me.* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khughes18 Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 picco 21 factory needle settings Master Needle Valve - main control for fuel mixture. Set at 2 to 2 1/2 turns from closed. Adjust this needle for maximum RPM and power without being too lean or too hot. Make sure you start at bottom of needle seat!! Barrel Needle (Low Speed) - 7mm Carburetor, factory setting is " Turn needle in until is stops, do not over tighten. Now, turn out counter clockwise 10.5 to 11.5 turns. This needle is in the center of the carburetor barrel and provides throttle response. It is not the idle adjustment. Turning screw "IN" is Lean and "Out" is Rich. Do not adjust this needle until the Master Needle is set for power and best performance. This needle will only effect throttle response, so adjust needle until throttle response is clean with little or no delay. Once set, do not continue to turn (lean) needle further. This is important since continuing to turn needle will only increase engine temp, at lower RPM, which will throw off engine overall tuning. Barrel Stop Screws - Used for adjusting Idle. Set for 1/16th inch gap to start new engines. You can open more for faster idle. anyone know the settings for the picco p3 .21? there's no way that 10.5-11.5 turns of the lsn is right on mine.

Chris1984 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 (edited) Hi Everyone I have recently just bought a second hand GV rex-x 1/8 in great condition except a loose battery case in the car .As i was testing it out my batteries came out and i lost all control of my car and crashed.When the car hit it threw its self into really high revs luckily enough my main gear diff had lost all its teeth so it did not fly off uncontrolably.I have replaced all the bad parts with new ones.BUT now after replacing them all i can not get my engine to start with ease and when it does start it cuts out.So this meaning the engine is fine. PROBLEM my engine refuses to start with ease and it keeps over flooding itself .Since i bought it second hand i dont know what the default setting are for my needels which is what i think is causing my hard to start and cutting out ptoblem ive even changes my glow plug and starter and still refuses to start easily and stay running sometimes cuts off when i try to accelerate also can anyone plz help me ineed needle settings for a 21 force engine Edited July 24, 2010 by Chris1984 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoe888 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 This is a place to post all the manufacturers stock settings for nitro engines. The aim is to build up a list with as many engines as possible and hopefully provide a clear guide on how to reset your engine to default for trouble shooting and easy starting. Hopefully this will solve a lot of problems for new and old members and also provide information for more obscure makes of engines that people are struggling with. HSN = High Speed Needle LSN = Low Speed Needle Unless stated assume all settings are anti clockwise turns opening the needles as you go. Keep it simple and clean and we will all benefit. Heres some to start off...... AR21 & AR28 appear identical. Ansmann Racing AR28, not confirmed but a good starting point. HSN - 4-4.5 turns out LSN - Flush IDLE 1mm open GO .28 3 Port HSN - 3.25-3.5 turns out from fully in. LSN - 1 turn in from flush IDLE - 1mm gap Hyper Macstar .28 6 Port HSN - 4.5 turns out from closed LSN - 2.5 turns out from closed IDLE 1-1.5mm open Hot Bodies .26 Powerhouse HSN - 3.5 Turns from fully closed. LSN - 3.5 Turns from fully closed. Idle - 1mm open. Kyosho GX21 Engine HSN - 4 Turns out from fully closed LSN - 0.5mm in from flush on valve IDLE 1mm Gap in carb Leo .15, not confirmed but a rough starting point. HSN - 2.5 turns LSN - 3 turns IDLE 1 mm open LRP Z.28 Spec 3 HSN - 3.75 Turns From Closed LSN - 3.75 Turns From Closed IDLE Gap between 0.5mm and 1.0mm open Mach 427 (lst2 and muggy) HSN - 4 turns out from bottom LSN - 2,5 turns out from bottom OS .21 V-spec HSN - 3 Turns out from fully closed LSN - Flush on valve IDLE 1mm gap in carb RB TM523 HSN - 6 turns from closed LSN/IDLE Needle - 5 turns from closed Schumacher X18 HSN - 2 1/2 turns out LSN - 0.70mm in from flush IDLE 0.50mm open Schumacher R18 HSN - 2-4 turns out LSN - 3-41/2 turns out IDLE 0.75mm open SH .28 HSN - 3 turns out LSN - 3 turns out IDLE 1mm open Team Associated / Thunder Tiger 28 Pro Duel Start Engine HSN - 2.75 turns LSN - 2/2.5 turns Thunder Tiger Pro .21 HSN - 2.5 Turns LSN - 1.5 Turns or Flush IDLE 1mm open TRX PRO .15 HSN - 2.5 turns out LSN - Flush with throttle arm assembly IDLE 1-1.5mm open TRX 2.5 & 3.3 HSN - 4 turns out LSN - flush with valve or 1.5-1.75 turns out IDLE 0.70-1mm open. can u put the engine of thunder tiger S50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
