The model engine

Radio controlled boats are a fun and rewarding hobby, that could be ether relaxing or exhilarating depending on your needs. Best of all it doesn’t have to be very expensive. RC boats come in a wide variety of forms and types ranging from small and steady cruisers to lightning fact racers. You can either buy one already built or you can buy it in the kit form and assemble it yourself.

Buying a ready build radio controlled boat is by far the easiest option. But building your own boat can be much more satisfying. This decision is dependant on your reasons for taking up radio controlled boats as a hobby in the first place. It is easy to find all of your RC boat parts either on the internet or at your local RC hobby store. You may be worried about the amount of work involved or think that it will be to hard to get a good result, but in the end you will be glad that you put in the effort, after all this is a hobby and what’s the point in finishing it in 5 minutes? Anyway these RC boats come pretty comprehensive instructions that make it real simple to achieve a great result in next to no time.

The next decision you need to make is what type or radio controlled boat would you like.

Radio controlled boats are built in electric, nitro, and gas variants. Electric RC boats, Nitro RC boats and Gas 

Electric are more popular because they are cheep and easier to run strait out of the box. Electric radio controlled boats come in a number of sizes, from the very small and slow pool toy RC boats to the very fast medium sized RC boat. The main problem with the electric boats is that as the batteries loose power the boat become slower.   

Nitro boats utilize Nitro-Methane fuel which is very powerful and makes for a fast boat, but the main problems with Nitro powered radio controlled boats are that the are a little more complicated to run as you will need to use a special starter kit to get them going and the fuel is about 4 times the price of a gas boat.

Gas radio controlled boats run on regular car gas with oil combined in the fuel. Also known as 2 stoke fuel. These engines are larger than the other types and therefore need a larger hulled boat to accommodate the engine. With the larger hull comes some advantages such as a more stable and easier to handle craft and mixed with the cheaper fuel, makes the gas RC boat (in my opinion) the best of the three types of radio controlled boat.

Then there is the radio controlled sail boat.

The radio controlled sail boat is the ultimate RC boat if you are looking for relaxation or stress relief. The radio control is there to control the sails and the rudder and naturally the wind acts as the engine.

For everyday bashing with a small block you can use as low as 10% nitro. Big blocks, I would not go below 20% on.

I usually run 20% nitro in my small blocks for bashing. I have ran numerous brands from Traxxas, O'Donnell, Trinity, Blue Thunder, Byron Race Fuel ect and from 10% to 33%. I like to run 30% Byron Race Fuel in my truck when I race outlaw class.

Just buy a quart of 10% and run it, then step up to 20% nitro and re tune the engine and see what a difference 10% nitro makes. Some might say that switching nitro % from 10 to 20 or ever 10 to 30 will damage your engine. I have a RC10GT with a O.S. 15-CV that I bash with and I change the nitro % all the time in it. I have over 8 gallons of fuel ran through it and I've never had a problem with the engine. No rebuild, no signs of letting go. So changing nitro % is not a problem, if you do just reset the needles to factory settings and tune for performance.

edit.

The highest is what ever you feel like running. You can run 10% on through 33%. Good luck and happy bashing

After every run you will want to do the following:

- Empty the fuel tank. Whether if you run out of gas or want to stop before the tank is done, you will want to empty the tank. If you empty the tank and run out of gas then go to the next section. If you did not then while the engine is still running pinch the fuel line. Let the engine run out of gas on its own and then disconnect the fuel line. Holding the line will send the balance of the gas in the tube back to the tank. Combusting all of the fuel ensures that there is not gas left in the engine.

- Use a after run lubricant. There are several types that you can buy and there is also over the shelf kinds like WD-40. These oils will allow you to coat the inner engine that will disperse the nitro against it (preventing corrosion) and also allowing a coating of the internals.

- Inspection. You will want to look over the entire RC. Look for loose screws (specifically in the engine area as it causes the most vibration), damage to the RC, cracked parts, broken parts, or missing parts. If you can identify a small problem here then you can same money in the long haul and have a RC that is able to run longer as well.

- Look for nitro. If you spill nitro then you will see it. But, if there is nitro around the engine, or below the main bearing in the front of it, then you may have a leak or a engine case crack. This can lead to serious engine damage. It is best to take care of air leaks by sealing them and knowing where the leak is by the nitro will help to know where to seal it. Also, nitro under the front bearing means that bearing is faulty. Replace that bearing as soon as possible to save the life of the engine. Anything that you see now will prevent the loss of a engine prematurely and the purchase of another.

-When you remove the glow plug to spray after run oil then inspect the plug. If the plug is wet then you are running rich. If the plug is black and the coil is brittle then you are running lean or on the throttle too much.

After every 5 runs

- Clean the entire kit. Take out all of the major components (center differential, radio tray, fuel tank, engine, etc) and clean everything. This will give you a better idea of missing, broken, cracked, loose etc. Running with a dirty kit is ok but a clean kit is maintained, will work for you longer, and you know that at any time it will be there for you ready to run instead of ready to break.

- With the engine removed for the above look at the one way bearing, cracks in the engine case, leaks, etc. If you see nitro fuel on the chassis around any of these areas then it is a good indication that the area above it is leaking and needs to be replaced as soon as possible before imminent engine damage. Inspect the one way bearing for wearing of the seals, the engine for cracks, and that the rear is not leaking.

- Clean the cooling head. This could be as simple as taking a can of compressed air and knocking out dirt. If the head is dirty then it will not cool as well and engine temps will go out.

-Clean the air filter. Remove the air filter and clean it with soapy water if needed. If you do this, ensure that you dab the filter with air filter oil and get the oil all over the foam.

Also be sure to clean the plastic case that holds the filter as it can hold dirt and other debris
