Beautiful work.... I'm looking to design a twin engine drone for rescue purposes and recording storms..... I always felt that a weed wacker engine can lower building cost for my project. Excellent work well done.
hi Russell, yes Sir it can. you need to get one with a clutch on it. no hard just look at small engine repair shops. Russel, I don't do any kind of conversions anymore Sir. I stopped a few yrs back. good luck Russell, you can do it, its not hard at all! God Bless***** Gary
Hey i currently have a weed eater engine that i wanna turn into a prop engine like this to use on a jon boat for an air boat motor any suggestions on what to do?
Gary, it looks like you do an awesome job! The quality of your work speaks for itself. I really enjoy your videos as well. I have a 21CC Echo motor that runs perfectly as a blower and would like you to convert it for R/C. How do I proceed?
hi there, thanks for your interest, but I quit doing them, I had too, it took up all my time, and it just was not worth that! (it was fun while it lasted, and I loved doing them, but it did not begin to pay off!) all the best***** Gary
Gary, Nice running motor. I am looking at converting a weed-eater (mccullough 28cc) motor for RC use. Can you clarify a few things for me? How did you connect to the existing crankshaft? My motor has a square bore in the end of it which accepts the end of a flexible cable that drives the weed whip. The motor originally had a priming bulb on the gas line and a return line to the fuel tank. The bulb leaked so I took it off, and I capped the return line to the fuel tank. Can you explain how the fuel system is supposed to work on these? What is the return line for? Do I need a pressurized fuel tank? Thanks Randy
Randy Sonnicksen hi Randy Sir, I just am so busy everyday of my life I dont have the time to even tell you want to do, I quit converting engines, it took all my time and did not even begin to pay off! get a hold of wackengines. do a search you will find them and they can sell you everything you need to convert your engine! God Bless***** Gary
+DIED12 ROBLOX&MINECRAFT hi my friend, if I still had my machines id build you a racer***** its guys like you that kept me doing it as long as I did! God Bless***** Gary Flymore
+DIED12 ROBLOX&MINECRAFT hi, I never got over $135.00 shipped for them. and I was doing the tricks to them that would make them come alive, tuned into allot of work the mods I would do to make them run like that and last forever. I was squeezing a extra HP or 2 out of all of them and make them hand start, idle forever and transition the throttle like they would and turn bigger pitch and length props, put the right smooth bore carburetors and hot coils and heavy magnets to do that kind of running like they should to make a real awesome running RC model airplane engine that would outlast them Chinese engines and you could depend on them and be proud of them! check this link out on RCUNIVERSE for my engine gallory user name> flyncrazy God Bless***** Gary

I've been around all kinds of engines my entire life.....That's the best sounding 2-cycle I think I've heard!
pmoore4321 thank you! Gary
i think the cabinet contributes a ton to the sound.

Excellent work well done.
Almost blew my laptop off the table when you revved it up.

I certainly understand that! I build custom audio - guitar and bass amps, stereos...Hard to make a living that way but it is fun! Happy New Year.
Who can argue with that demo?
thank you!
Nice engine!
Good Job, Gary! 😀

64:1....................
i use 2 ounces of amsoil to 1 gallon of gag! : )
Use mid grade unleaded as most of these engines are high compression ones.

I made it on a lathe, I don't make them anymore. google them you will find them! Gary
Arg make them agin
+DIED12 ROBLOX&MINECRAFT if I had the machines id make you one. I sold it all. Gary

where do the cranks with the full circle counter weights come from?
huh? I dont know what you mean? Gary
I think he means that the crank has two counter weights on them vs the ones like model glow engines have. Echo engines have those two CWs.
Can i put my flywheel on backwards i have a 31cc ryobi engine
no!
