First Run of New M-92 Engine
« on: July 07, 2020, 03:57:17 pm »
This is right out of the box.  I added batteries and fuel and started with first pull of the rope.  It runs a bit fast for my liking, so the next step is to see if I can slow it down!

Runs fast ........ heck it even walks pretty fast across the table there!

Just the fact that it's running right out of the box tells me that you are going to be able to work with it and get it running at a more leisurely pace. We'll be expecting a video of it when you get it closer to where you want it, along with details of any magic you may have performed to get it there!!!

Slowing down this one is not quite as simple as on the others.
I'll get something up on another thread.
