Hit & Miss Engine, Red Wing 1/3rd scale
This my Red Wing 1/3rd scale model hit and miss engine.
I have just recently fished building it from a basic unmachined casting kit produced by PM Research in the US and supplied to me by Forest Classics here in the UK. All the other necessary components and fittings were made by me from bar stock.
It's just about run in now and I have it running here on Colman's camping fuel with 10% WD40 added to lubricate the bore but also runs well on petrol with a small amount of 2 stroke oil added.
The ignition is via a Rcexl CDi unit with hall effect sensor from 'Just Engines' in the UK.
Power to the ignition is supplied by 2x 18650 3.7v Lithium batteries wired in series (8.4v) and are in the wooded control box.
As you can see in the box there is also a rev counter, the Rcexl cdi unit comes with a lead attached specifically for this purpose so it seemed a shame not you use it! . . . It's x10 by the way so about 260 rpm.

FZ1 + SJ4000 - Fun in November sun! 2014
มุมมอง 1759 ปีที่แล้ว
First test of my SJ4000 camera on the FZ1, still need to do a bit of tweaking with the settings but not too bad for first time out me thinks! November sun was pretty low in the sky so a bit of glare here and there.

This year’s Hoggin The Bridge was a great turn out must have been about 2,000 bikes! Set off from the Seven View services across the bridge and then a 2 hour ride through towns a villages to Chepstow race course where there was lots going on including live bands and trade stands etc. All in all a great day out all in aid of charity.

Is there an engine like this anywhere for sale question? 3:48 from Tacoma Washington
You are allowed to speak, you know! 😂 Lovely engine, well made and finished.
This engine spins freely! Maybe it is very efficient. Just make these springs on flywheel hard and it will go very fast.
Gorgeous piece of workmanship!
Sounds like music 😃
Felicetation.magnefique
I want one 😫
Skipped to 1:53 and thought I was being shown around a Belgian prison cell :P
Love it
A reply would be nice
Hi,I am just about to purchase the same engine already built,may I ask what fuel you are using?i notice you are running it indoors as well,any problem with the fumes?all the best
I'm guessing at Ethanol.
Very nice job, thanks for showing it to us :)
Beautiful engine. Nice speed. Thanks for posting
ÓTIMO MOTOR MINIATURE, BRASIL OK.
That's a nice one. It sounds like the real thing.
Outstanding workmanship. One must appreciate the blend of old tech and new, the CDI stuff mixed into it as if it's always belonged.
I think you can start it whit the hand! Nice engine
This is a super clean build. I like the fan on a timer. Thanks for sharing!
Great Job im looking for a start in the hobby, if someday you get tired of it.... sell it?
I really like the speed of this one...most of these I've seen run too fast.
PERFEITA RÉPLICA DE MOTOR ANTIGO, BRASIL OK.
That, is stunning!
A beautiful.engine indeed- but for the purchase price, you would be better off with a genuine vintage one.. with prices that are steadily increasing.
You're missing the point. Building a scale model engine is not intended as a substitute for owning a full-scale engine. Rather, it is to have the experience of building a scale model engine.
Nicely done. Don't know why I never saw it before now.
キットですか?しかし精巧に出来て居ますね?
what is the price i don't heard
When it attempts to fire but fails one or more times before it finally fires, what is going on there? Is that a mixture issue once it starts to warm up? I've heard that on a few engine videos, but I haven't heard a good explanation for it. Congratulations on very low friction, by the way. You mentioned in another comment an interest in building a twin. I've never seen a twin cylinder hit and miss, and am enthusiastically interested in such a project! I have a smaller version on the way and can hardly wait to dig into it.
Buck Starchaser it's a *hit & miss* engine
Buck Starchaser , I have found that normally when it’s double firing like that it is because it is to lean, need to open the mixture screw a tad bit. The only twin cylinder Hit and Miss engine that I have ever seen was scratch built by Jim Limacher, and is on the cover of the Oct/Nov 2013 issue of Gas Engine Magazine, and it is a beauty !
This is so cool you know where I can buy one of these the exact same one

How mach does it cost
Thanks! :-)
Good design, but I would put a inerchangable three star or four star spliter at end make the job faster and effective
*>>>**arah.in/yhBb** Portability is excellent which "at my level of experience" is very important :-). After 3 years still going strong. good enough for a single user to do a little trim nailing or even a framer for a smallish project. Wouldn't want to use it to frame a house or nail off a shingle roof though…*
Fantastic, hope mine comes out this good. Well done !
i go there often with my friends
why use the drill to start it? i found that to be laughable. nice engine btw
why not? . . glad it amused you!
It isn't necessary to start a Redwing with a drill! Both mine - air-cooled and water-cooled - start first pull by hand. It shouldn't misfire like that either. Excellent job otherwise though.
Trotz aler Mühe siehts mit den schwarzen Felgen und Strassenreiifen irgendwie Scheiße aus..da find ich meine besser!
what a lovely job you have done.it should give you a good few years of service & satisfaction.well done,& full marks for very nice build.
Wouldn't it be more economical to just buy one? The hours and materials seem like it wouldn't make sense for this size air compressor
the whole point is quiet not loud
Nice build.. Say what size is the copper Tubing for the Air outlet tube and suction tube ? I am asking because i am wondering if it's 1/4 copper pipe or larger or smaller thanks
Greetings from Colombia, great work, what capacity is the unit of the refrigerator, how many horsepower has ,,, 1/4 hp? . Thank you
Beautiful bike in great shape. Not the original muffler. Thank you for sharing.
That's really cool.Looks a bit different from the last time I saw it.
Ye a lot of hours have gone into it since you saw it last, you know me once I start something I've got to finish it! :-)
Already thinking about the next one! a twin perhaps from scratch?
great bikes I raced Baja many times on76-77tt/xt still have 2tt/1xt love them great to see other bikes like mine Brenda's dad
just curious what you sold this bike for I have a very nice low mileage 76 xt500c just needs a new seat cover and side plastics it only has 26k on the clock I'm the 2nd owner
xcelent 👍👍👍
Nice XT ---- but too quiet.
Just needs a SuperTrap.
Looks awesome!
COOOL love that foot action
Ye I used the original waterproof switch that was on the machine and put it in the aluminium box with a detachable lead! works well !
Love that coastal road! Great video :)
Thanks bud! . . Ye it is a great road!
Just realized you can undo the anti-shack thing, so video is back as it was!
