Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Air Models / February 2009Tiger Shark engines
Anyone have any experience with the Tiger Shark engines? Sure look like a good value if they are reliable. Thanks in advance, Tom Bubb > Anyone have any experience with the Tiger Shark engines? > Sure look like a good value if they are reliable. > > Thanks in advance, > > Tom Bubb IMO, they're junk! After my experience with a .40, I'll never trust another one on any of my planes. One too many dead-sticks finally cost me a plane. The *cheap* route for me was not the best choice. For my money, I'll stick with OS, Irvine, YS and Saito... > > Anyone have any experience with the Tiger Shark engines? > > Sure look like a good value if they are reliable.

These are fantastic engines if you can find them Extremely reliable and powerful. By the way, I have at least 150 engines and the tiger shark .40 is on of the ones I fly in a plane even with 23 other choices in tha displacement range. Ma -- Max Tene excellent motors. not all of us a capable of handling model engines. i have had experience with the smaller sharks, 40-46, and just added 1.20 to my collection of motors. runs like a charm. experimenting wit fuel and plugs as the bigger sharks dont like to much oil or nitro. a the moment im using a medium heat long reach plug, 15% syn/castor mix 5% nitro and it perfect but think it could be tweeked a little more. hope this helps -- 0406johnbo 0406johnboy Wrote: > excellent motors. not all of us a capable of handling model engines. i. > have had experience with the smaller sharks, 40-46, and just added a [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > 5% nitro and it perfect but think it could be tweeked a little more. > hope this helps.
