    Johnny, you should mill out some 1 piece rotors for that blower and open up the ports so it actually flows air.

    It stalls sideways because the wheels have stopped turning ! It’s lost its forward momentum, at low rpm you have practically no torque available from the motor, it’s not a diesel engine & you have a huge flat spot in the power.

      It’s a traditional manual transmission. When the clutch is engaged you can’t just stop. I know he put that Revo transmission in but that doesn’t change the direct drive nature of the setup.

      No, the carbs are losing their prime because there's no tank pressure. The diaphragm pumps on the carbs depend on intake pulses to function, and at high rpm the pulses are too close together to provide sufficient volume. That's why you have run a line from the muffler to pressurize the tank. This is done on a lot of RC planes as well for the same reason.

      It would actually reduce the engine RPM; plus he's already burning out clutches on the flywheel he has, so this might not be a good idea. The comments above about pressurizing the fuel tank with the exhaust is probably an easier solution and won't require any additional modification. Seems to me like the system is losing fuel flow to the dual carb setup in a tilted position which is very indicative of low fuel pressure.

    • @Kettletrigger
      @Kettletrigger 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@someonesomewhere_777 A heavier flywheel will not reduce engine RPM. It WILL slow engine response due to more inertia, which is why a lightened flywheel is a common performance modification. The downside to a light flywheel is a tendency for the engine to lose RPM quickly...sometimes so quickly that it dies. Which is what might be happening here. Slowing engine response will not hurt the clutch. If anything, it will increase clutch life due to more gradual changes in RPM. Johnny has a lathe and a mill - adding weight to the flywheel shouldn't be a big deal (if that in fact is the problem).

    At first I was worried JohnnyQ90 wasn't devulging that he is sponsored by Toyan or Sterling Kit, and that he actually gets all these engines for free. You're supposed to let people know if you're sponsored. To be honest, though, I think these videos have made me want these small engines less and less the more of them I see. Imagine spending $1700 on this "supercharged" V8, plus everything else needed to get it to run (and even more if in an RC chassis), and the thing just breaks almost immediately because of terrible manufacturing and tolerances. I'll stick with enjoying watching someone else spend tons of money on getting them to work right.

      I don't mind he's sponsored or not. I love the creative process in his videos. I think he does a great job. I love watching all of the unique machining parts and 3D printed parts. Those engines seem on the surface really awesome but I can tell they break catastrophically really easy, the tolerances in the machining process are probably not good at all even though it "looks" good. Being sold extra attachments like superchargers that actually hinder and hurt the motor instead of actually giving more power. You would have to have a bunch of expendable income and enjoy this as a hobby because these motors seem like they're really low quality and horribly made and unreliable.

    My guess is rotor shaft flex and the tolerances of the supercharger synchro gears:
    -That tri-lobe rotor looks to be a 3D ratio, with 3 segments I doubt it has the rigidity to stay straight under boost.
    -The synchro gears would need to have insanely tight tolerances and sub tenth backlash to maintain the lobe seal with such small gears/rotors. Even operating with a wet seal design.
    -If you do decide to make your own rotors, may I suggest a helical tri-lobe.

    It has a terrible understeer, the car doesn't want to turn. And if you apply too much power, it immediately oversteers.
    I suggest you check your differential (if exists) . This issue causes extra load to your engine and clutch while turning.

    @JohnnyQ90 - just a thought: set up the throttle and clutch actuations on the same servo (or multiple servos from the same channel) - as you give it more throttle, the clutch starts to engage, and as you let off, the clutch disengages. This would take an incredible amount of fine tuning, but I’d imagine would work extremely well, but still provide that realistic functionality you’re looking for.

    The comment about the tank needing to be pressurized is correct. They flow a lot of fuel at WOT, and the diaphragm pumps in the carbs can't keep up with it unless you have some tank pressure. You might look into sintered bronze for your clutch basket. The hotter it gets, the better it works. You may need a bit stronger return spring though.. Other than that, pretty good run for the 'first' time out!!😄👍👍

    I agree with a lot of these comments about the stalling issue. I’m leaning towards the idea that was mentioned about the clutch being still engaged while the car comes to a complete stop. That would definitely stall my car at least. That also probably played a roll in the clutch breaking. If it’s a fuel issue though, my suggestion is try a bigger fuel line, and a carb bowl if they don’t already have one. The bigger line will keep it from hydro locking, and the bowl will help with whatever air still gets through. As for the super charger I’m on team solid rotors lol. Those have to be one, solid, smooth piece to get rid of the slap. They have way too much wiggle being three pieces each.
    In other news; line lock? Totally unnecessary and would probably destroy the transmission but man would it be cool if it worked. Just sitting there roasting the tires and then turning it off and peeling away.
    As always, love the video. Keep up the awesome work, and I can’t wait for the next one.

    I'd add a baffled fuel cell to the list too, maybe put some foam in there and or make something custom with a baffled swirl pot built into it, the sort of thing you see on drag cars. The sudden direction changes and inertia were visibly causing the fuel to climb up the side of the tank which as the fuel goes down are probably starving the feed line.

    I think a 7.5cc nitro engine 1 cilinder wil outperform all those toyan engines. Sad but treu. I still love it that you try making them work!!😍

    You could make a custom fuel tank with baffles on the inside to prevent the fuel from sloshing to either side. Cheers!

    It would be interesting to spin the supercharger at operating RPM without the engine, to see how much air it moves. I think these tiny engines are too small for forced induction to work properly. And I think the tolerances are probably just good enough for them to run, I think any substantial level of boost would bend things or just end up being lost as blow by. I'd love to be proven wrong, though. "2 Stroke Stuffing" gets an astounding amount of power out of a 50cc engine, but that's only one cylinder, and it's actually designed for vehicular use.

    If you add a pressurized fuel rail system with like even 2 or 3 psi it would prevent it from shutting off when starved of fuel. I noticed its fuel delivery when it didnt fully die after turning and when you throttled it, it was already leaning out and it was to lean to get the fuel to create combustion again.

    Don't know if it does anything, but I like the high pich sound it makes

    The scoring on the inside of the supercharger housing looked like it was towards the center, so the rods holding the rotors might be bowing from a slight imbalance when they spin fast enough. Someone mentioned one-piece rotors, so that might help a rigidity issue. If that's what's actually happening.

    A felt or ceramic fuel clunk may help if fuel is aerating or sloshing air causing it to die.

    I'm glad that you looked at that supercharger.... Very difficult on small-scale to get any form of pumping efficiency... Ratio of size 2 clearance.. Plus friction of the belt... but perhaps you could just run the supercharger with a motor and measure the pressure at different RPMs..... As well as getting an idea of the flow rate...before connecting it back to the engine...
