now that brushless is the new hot thing of RC whats next?
how about these small block v8 and v12 nitro motors? have you guys seen these? pretty cool for a nitro. most of them would fit 1/5 or 1/4 scale cars but the v12 looks like it would fit a 1/8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mutb7...eature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7MLJ...eature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3VVI6Auvys&NR=1 Losi Ten-T SCT conversion Neu 1512 1y |

OMG!!!! I think I have found my goal for 10 years from now. Those are some serious time and money investments. Great machining and attention to detail. I wonder how they are controlling the ignition spark? Would almost have to be purely electronic, rather than a cam driven system - but I could be wrong...
Wonder if I could get a diesel made....

compression ignition not spark silly

The V8's definitely sound better (not that constant mosquito drone), but BL still seems to be stronger. I think if you get an equivalent horsepower electric system, it will still far outclass the V8 simply because of torque. But an electric system that big will probably be much more expensive. But really, it doesn't look like cost is a consideration.
FYI: Moved thread to the general nitro section... |

Those wires are probably just for the glow plugs. With a central ignitor

I came across these a couple years ago, there are several copies of the videos on youtube. I do beleive these are spark ignition motors, not compression at least the V8s. The second video/ first V8 is simply a scaled down Chevy V8 for the most part. The last video is a blown alcohol motor just as you would find on a top fuel drag car, dual magneto spark ingition and all. My friends and I had thought how cool it would be to make a RC car or go cart with one until we really started looking into them. Found the website for the guy that makes them. They are pretty much a novelty item and thats about all they're worth. First is the price tag, the standard v8 started at about $5k and the blown alcohol was considerablly more. Second was the HP ratings, the standard V8 was only about 5HP. For $5k I could buy a GM crate motor and stick it in a Chevette and have a car running around a 12sec 1/4 mile. Or put a 4cyl car motor on a go cart! All in all they are really cool but thats about all they are

the multi cylinder nitro motors are compression ignition. (connellys and others) but the scale v-8s I assume have a spark and I assume run on gas? If you think that was a mechanical marvel check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AQFRWgW9bk

Just amazing. Making detailed parts in full scale is time consuming enough - when you have tooling that fits the application. Now scale that down to where everything you use to build requires custom tooling, its just amazing. People that do that are an inspiration.
