@@EnginePoweredArt Sir you nailed it. Got a big plastic tether plane for Christmas one year which was a huge deal for me and my parents as we were very poor. Had 6 volt dry cell battery that you wired to the glow plug in hopes of starting the motor. Think mime was a Wen Mac but know it was 049. Would take me hours of trying to light it up for a 2 minute, at best, flight around the back yard. Still have my orange 65 Mustang tether car with basically the same tiny motor in it.

try castor oil with 90+% rubbing alcohol. I forget the ratios. You could probably drop some high test gasoline in there to make the cold starts warm up faster.

@@EnginePoweredArt..the ‘Black Widow’ was a tighter-tolerance, higher compression, higher-RPM, higher-power engine. The porting was optimized for more power. It was a screamer, both in sound, and in performance. In the early 70s, I put this on a ‘Combat Kitten’ balsa combat, and I had many many enjoyable flights with it. Inner/outer loops, inverted flight, wing-overs…. Yeah, I enjoyed it. Moved up to a F109 version of the Midwest ‘Magician’ profile line, with an Enya .035. More joy. Sadly, I allowed ‘life’ to interfere. (the ‘Combat Kitten’ was the .049/.051 version of the .035 ‘Combat Cat’.. made by Midwest??? Memory fails.)

Then go watch it if that's yours mentality
Is the tank the only thing why its now called somthing else? 049 still, but on like a pt19 cruiser like i have or what? That comes with the original 049 stock.

I think the reason for the name Black Widow is the color design. The engine is black and red like this spider

@@EnginePoweredArt..the ‘Black Widow’ was a tighter-tolerance, higher compression, higher-RPM, higher-power engine. The porting was optimized for more power. It was a screamer, both in sound, and in performance. In the early 70s, I put this on a ‘Combat Kitten’ balsa combat, and I had many many enjoyable flights with it. Inner/outer loops, inverted flight, wing-overs…. Yeah, I enjoyed it. Moved up to a F109 version of the Midwest ‘Magician’ profile line, with an Enya .035. More joy. Sadly, I allowed ‘life’ to interfere. (the ‘Combat Kitten’ was the .049/.051 version of the .035 ‘Combat Cat’.. made by Midwest??? Memory fails.)
