Nitro engines for models can turn in excess of 50,000 RPM. Typical operating rpm for sport model aircraft engines is 10,000–14,000 RPM. For radio control (RC) boats and ducted fan aircraft engines, 20,000–25,000 is the usual range, and for cars RPM in the range of 25,000–37,000 is common. With this much movement, a lot of frictional heat is generated and the fuel used for these engines ...
Radio-controlled car. Radio-controlled cars, or RC cars for short, [1] are miniature vehicles (cars, vans, buses, buggies, etc.) controlled via radio. Nitro powered models use glow plug engines, small internal combustion engines fuelled by a special mixture of nitromethane, methanol, and oil (in most cases a blend of castor oil and synthetic oil).
The Tamiya Radio Controlled Nitro Off-road Vehicles entered the radio controlled (RC) nitro engine (glow engine) powered 1/8 scale truck market in July 2002.Produced by the Tamiya Corporation of Japan, these 1/8 scale trucks are designed for stadium competition. Tamiya's first nitro truck, TR-15t, was introduced in 1994. Second truck was the TGM-01 Mad Bison, released in 2000.
By Oliver Moore. Nitro RC cars are hobby grade remote control cars that are powered by nitromethane gas. Their engines and mechanical components are very similar to real cars that we see on the roads. Nitro RC cars range from 1:10 to 1:5 scale and they often exceed speeds of 50 miles per hour (80km/h). These are the ‘original’ RC cars since ...
Nitro Engines []. Nitro engine. Nitro engines are generally tiny engines, powering small to medium size RC vehicles, and running on nitro fuel.They have relatively short lifespans, usually between 1 and 10 gallons of fuel, but there are rumours at Phroziac's local hobby shop of engines lasting 20 gallons, depending on how you care for and maintain them.
Nitro engine tuning. Engine tuning is the process of adjusting the carburetor mixture for optimum performance. Engine tuning is adjusting the fuel and air mixture entering the engine. The High speed needle (HSN) and low speed needle (LSN) are what determine fuel mixture settings. The low speed needle is used to meter the fuel burnt by the ...
28 wrz 2009 · The Nitro basically provides more oxygen so the Methanol can burn more completely which means that you can open the needle and allow more fuel into the engine. More fuel means more potential power, it also cools the engine but only just enough to make up for the extra power and bigger burn.
