Cold start, Moki 257, 250cc 7-cylinder radial gas engine

Спорт

The video demonstrates a safe method for hand starting a large gas engine.
We are beginning to check out the systems of our FG-1D Corsair, Skyboss. The plane is approximately 1/4 scale, weighs 74.5 lbs. “wet,“ ready to fly. Her markings are based on the real Skyboss. Extensive research and attention to details make this FG-1D Corsair one of a kind.
The plane has a Jeti radio system including a Central Box 400, two CB100 signal and power distribution modules, and four receivers with 24 channels to control all her systems. The plane has 33 servos and actuators, and is powered by four 5200 lithium ion batteries.
She was painted with Klasskote paint. The Yosemite Sam nose art decal was done by Callie Graphics.

    Thank you for your comment...it's appreciated The cool sound comes from the Tripipes at 5:20. When you remove them...the engine sounds like a soft 250-5. Thank you for your comments...I wish I had included some cutaways of the cockpit...it's exact in every detail to the real Skyboss...even has a transponder. The real Skyboss was a show girl...so quite a bit was updated for the FAA to be able to fly in airshows...but other than that...You would see just a small real corsair...Note the stall strip on the Starboard wing...

    A dear old friend of mine almost fifty years ago, a pilot in the Marines who flew the F4U in the pacific during the war, taught me to fly in his 140-tail dragger. It would be off to Oshkosh for the show..."Kevin, just keep the wings level with the horizon and wake me up when we're getting close", 😳 while he lit up his pipe, over a shirt that had a few burnt holes in it from his pipe, then drifted off into a nap. 😴What wonderful and unforgettable memories! He was also certified to rebuild that little engine on the 140, not much he couldn't do, he taught me so much! Your FG-1D brought back those fond memories of us flying together for hours on end, thank you Rick!

    thank you for the comment...it's all due to the scale (Tripipes) 5:20 into the video...without them the sound is pretty soft compared to a standard 250....the smoothness is due to the Fuel it is burning, tappets correct, The pump supplying a constant pressure and prop...I just pulled the plugs and replaced with new ones for the maiden flight...the old plugs looked brand new...getting the mixture lean enough but not too lean is important (both ends)...got lucky!

    The starting procedure was absolutely great !! The engine started more like the original radials which do not jump into speed all of a sudden. I ran the video at 4:57 half the speed. This is impressive. With some smoke at the exhaust the imagination would be perfect. Like to see it flying.

    Let me see...there was a comment some days ago about the same thought....BRB ..this was about 11 days ago...and my thoughtful answer to the same question...Well...lets see...there are Servos and Linear Actuators that are treated just like servos...so let me take just the wing... (4) flap, (2) Aileron, (2) oil cooler, (1) inner cooler, (2) wing actuators, (2) wing hinge door, (2) gear actuators, (4) gear door servos.......that's the wing... (19) ... Let's see Fuselage ... (1) rudder, (1) steering, (2) elevators, (1) tailwheel actuator, (2) gear door, (1) tail hook, (1) canopy actuator, (2) cowl flap, (1) throttle, (1) choke, (1) fuel pump, (14) ... I didn't count things like ignition or lights ... but that is pretty close and all are programmed with the DC24. did I miss something? If you have further questions feel free to ask.

    That was the 250-5 and they are great engines to have...the starter only adds about 10% to the cost...the 257's cylinder arrangment makes it impossible to have one...also...as with the full size radial...Hydrolock is common so just like the full scale you must pull the prop through several times before you hit the button to start...if you like the sound check out the Maiden Flight of the Nieuport24bis.......
