    KCS 62cc Gas Engine.

    Well, the Southern Minnesota Model Aircraft Club warbird fly in is over for another year. I added about an hour more of run time to the engine. The KCS 62 flew the 1/3 scale DRI all over the sky. It is interesting to have people come and ask if its the same motor I had last year. I guess some...

    KCS 62cc Gas Engine.

    I was doing the math in my head(ouch). Transmitter clock has 4 hours 17 min. Add to that the break in time. So flight time and break in time on the ground is about 5 hours. Give or take a few minutes.

    KCS 62cc Gas Engine.

    Thanks for the information. I will watch for those things. I must have the only motor out there that hasn't had and problem that were faults of the engines design or construction. I must have gotten one built on a Wednesday.

    KCS 62cc Gas Engine.

    I would like to know what makes you say that it is a POS? As I said when I was given this motor, I have almost zero time with gas motors. So educate me on what makes this a bad motor as compared to a good one. What are the issues you speak of. I ask this not to sound like I am defending the...

    KCS 62cc Gas Engine.

    There was one other person that had a KCS 62 that over heated during the break-in phase. I think it was traced to a bad carburetor. The thread is somewhere on GiantScaleNews.com I would be interested to see how KCS works this issue out. Please keep us informed. Jeff

    KCS 62cc Gas Engine.

    fjm@kcsengine.com I use this address (e-mail) to talk with the KCS folks. I hope it gets you some help. I have flown my 1/3 scale Triplane a few times this year and I have one of the first 5. So far it has been a great motor. This is the start of my 2nd full flying season with this motor...

    KCS 62cc Gas Engine.

    The KCS 62 is selling on Amazon and EBay, but at high prices. I have flown mine for just over a year now, and would buy another if I had an airframe that called for it. I am flying it on my 1/3 scale Balsa USA DRI. A Xoar 28 x 6 prop spins at 6000 rpm, but I never fly at more than 1/2...

    Mid Atlantic Dawn Patrol

    The Mid Atlantic dawn patrol was held, and the people that made it, about 41 pilots, said it was fantastic. A few of the local Minnesota flyers went. WWI is gaining speed. The number of planes grows each year.

    New Here? Introduce yourself!

    Hello, just found the site. Looks great. I have been flying 1/4 and 1/3 scale WWI aircraft for many years now. But last month I started flying a 60 inch AJ Aircraft Laser 230s. It is quite a change from the big slow turning WWI fighters. Never too old to learn a new level of fun. I am off...
