The Robart Radials are indeed running again.  The cause for the 'seizure' turned out to be too close tolerance in the front 'gear case'.  Unfortunately, the entire engine must be disassembled in order to remove the front case.  Fixing the tolerance issue took only a few minutes, the dis-assembly and re-assembly took all day.

Thanks to RCScaleBuilder.com for sponsoring the award.  With any luck, the NASA Scale Classic will turn out a whole lot better for 'Bad Kitty".  The sound of two radials is just too sweet to abandon.

Dennis,
Welcome to the best RC Scale site in the world!
You did a magnificent job with the big bad kitty with a hair ball.
Glad it wasn't terminal or expensive to repair.

Larry,
That 4 stroke looks to be the ticket. It is big enough and from the look of the moments on the "Toot" you need all the weight
up front so you need a electric start on that thing.

Bob,
You are right, I set the armored vehicle down and steped away. Scale aircraft is where your friends are. Mitch took this photo of you giving me a hand during round 5. Thank you, I look forward to flying with you again soon,
Larry B

Hello Larry,

Thanks for posting this picture. I must say it is a pretty good picture of me, the Fiat, and your chicken legsLOL
