When it attempts to fire but fails one or more times before it finally fires, what is going on there? Is that a mixture issue once it starts to warm up? I've heard that on a few engine videos, but I haven't heard a good explanation for it. Congratulations on very low friction, by the way. You mentioned in another comment an interest in building a twin. I've never seen a twin cylinder hit and miss, and am enthusiastically interested in such a project! I have a smaller version on the way and can hardly wait to dig into it.
Buck Starchaser , I have found that normally when it’s double firing like that it is because it is to lean, need to open the mixture screw a tad bit. The only twin cylinder Hit and Miss engine that I have ever seen was scratch built by Jim Limacher, and is on the cover of the Oct/Nov 2013 issue of Gas Engine Magazine, and it is a beauty !
Hi,I am just about to purchase the same engine already built,may I ask what fuel you are using?i notice you are running it indoors as well,any problem with the fumes?all the best
You're missing the point. Building a scale model engine is not intended as a substitute for owning a full-scale engine. Rather, it is to have the experience of building a scale model engine.
It isn't necessary to start a Redwing with a drill! Both mine - air-cooled and water-cooled - start first pull by hand. It shouldn't misfire like that either. Excellent job otherwise though.
Outstanding workmanship. One must appreciate the blend of old tech and new, the CDI stuff mixed into it as if it's always belonged.
You are allowed to speak, you know! 😂
Lovely engine, well made and finished.
Gorgeous piece of workmanship!
That's a nice one. It sounds like the real thing.
Beautiful engine. Nice speed. Thanks for posting
Very nice job, thanks for showing it to us :)
Nicely done. Don't know why I never saw it before now.
This engine spins freely! Maybe it is very efficient. Just make these springs on flywheel hard and it will go very fast.
That, is stunning!
I think you can start it whit the hand! Nice engine
PERFEITA RÉPLICA DE MOTOR ANTIGO, BRASIL OK.
I really like the speed of this one...most of these I've seen run too fast.
That's really cool.Looks a bit different from the last time I saw it.
Ye a lot of hours have gone into it since you saw it last, you know me once I start something I've got to finish it! :-)
Already thinking about the next one! a twin perhaps from scratch?
Love it
ÓTIMO MOTOR MINIATURE, BRASIL OK.
Sounds like music 😃
This is so cool you know where I can buy one of these the exact same one

Buck Starchaser
it's a *hit & miss* engine

I'm guessing at Ethanol.
I want one 😫
A reply would be nice
A beautiful.engine indeed- but for the purchase price, you would be better off with a genuine vintage one.. with prices that are steadily increasing.

what is the price i don't heard
キットですか?しかし精巧に出来て居ますね?
why use the drill to start it? i found that to be laughable. nice engine btw
why not? . . glad it amused you!
