Safety Tips!
- During the break-in period, it is recommended that the engine be installed on the aircraft or a test stand
- Mount the engine correctly, please make sure all components including the propeller and the engine mount are secure and tight.
- Keep the surface of the engine clean to ensure proper heat dissipation. Ensure proper cooling/ventilation around the cylinder with adequate air exhaust.
- Use an approved propeller and spinner
- Please ensure that the propeller is balanced, as an imbalanced prop robs power.
- The ignition module can get hot during operation, ensuring appropriate cooling.
- Use the correct battery, Switch, and regulator (if applicable) for your ignition
- Use a fuel tank and fuel line (Tygon) suitable for gasoline operation.
- Use the correct fuel mix for break-in (25:1) (gas and oil)
- After the engine brake, the recommended mix is (40:1) (gas and oil)
- Adequate filtering of your fuel ensures reliable operation
- Use a pre-flight checklist before flying your model. See the section on recommended pilot’s checklist
- Secure your model properly when starting
- Do not use your fingers or hand to start your engine, recommended to use a starter
- Adjust your carburetor correctly (Please do not adjust the carburetor needle position if you’re a beginner)
- Ensure that your spark plug is in good condition and is correctly tightened, Ensure that your ignition cap is securely mounted. Make sure that your ignition wires are not frayed and appropriately secured
- Remember that when the engine is running everyone must stay behind the line of the rotating propeller; never to the side or the front!
- Do not allow any part of your body to come in contact with the rotating propeller.
- Do not wear loose clothing and watch your radio neck straps. These can get caught in the moving propeller
- Do not operate this engine if you are under the influence of any drugs, alcohol or medication that could affect your ability to use the engine properly.
Disclaimer
We cannot control the safe operation of our products. We do not accept
responsibility from injuries or damage to property resulting from the misuse
and abuse of our products.
Carburetor settings:
1. Choke Control (the choke control should be used when the engine is
cold)
2. Throttle Control
3. Idle Adjustment Screw (adjust the idle speed)
4. (L) Low-speed Needle (adjusts the fuel/air mixture at low speeds)
5. (H) High-speed
Needle (adjusts the fuel/air mixture at high speeds) Each CRRCPRO Engine has
been factory preset. However, higher elevations will influence the performance
of the carburetor. To obtain the optimum output of the engine, slight
adjustment of the carburetor may be necessary. For safety reasons do not make
adjustments to the carburetor while the engine is running. Idle Adjustment
Turning the Idle Adjustment Screw (No.3) clockwise will increase the idle
speed. Turning the Idle Screw counter-clockwise will decrease the idle speed.
Low-Speed Needle Adjustment Turning the Low-speed Needle (No.4) clockwise
will lean the fuel/air mixture at low speeds. Turning the Low-speed Needle
(No.4) counterclockwise will richen the fuel/air mixture at low speeds. The
default or factory setting of the Low-speed Needle is as follows: turn the
needle clockwise to the fully stop/closed position and then turn back 1.5
turns
High-Speed Needle Adjustment Turning the High-speed Needle (No.5)
clockwise will lean the fuel/air mixture at high speeds. Turning the Low-speed
Needle (No.5) counter-clockwise will richen the fuel/air mixture at high
speeds. The default or factory setting of the High-speed Needle is as follows:
turn the needle clockwise to the fully stop/closed position and then turn back
1.5 turns. It is recommended that the High-speed Needle be adjusted by the use
of a tachometer to obtain maximum speed. Smooth acceleration and deceleration
is an indicators of proper engine performance.
Engine Start ( Suggest using starter)
If this is the first time of you start the engine, please fill a little
lubrication to the spark plug hole and turn the propeller assembly lightly to
make the piston lubricated enough. If you start by the right hand, please
stand left in front of the engine, contrariwise, please stand right in front
of the engine.
Note: When hand-starting the GP36R, use a thick glove or heavy-duty
starter stick to protect your hand.
- The propeller should be installed on the drive washer so that it is at the one o’clock position and at the beginning of the compression stroke so that it is comfortable to flip it through compression.
- Have someone help you hold the airplane while you start the engine.
- Close the choke on the carburetor and open the throttle slightly from the idle position.
- Switch on, or power your radio system and make sure you have control of the throttle visually at the carburetor. Also, make sure that the reversing position of the servo is correct at the transmitter and that the throttle is at the minimum position.
- Switch the ignition to ON. If you installed the optional TX-activated gas engine kill switch properly between the manual on/off switch and the ignition, make sure that the TX switch assigned is in the on position. The LED should be illuminated red to indicate that the ignition is armed.
- Flip the propeller counterclockwise several times briskly.
- After you hear some initial fi ring sounds, move the choke lever to the OPEN position.
- Set the throttle to a high idle. Set the propeller so that it’s at the beginning of the compression stroke
- Flip the propeller through compression rapidly. If this is done properly, the engine will start after several brisk flips of the propeller.
- After starting, let the engine idle for 30 to 45 seconds. Open and close the throttle slowly until the engine runs smoothly at idle and at full throttle. Acceleration should also be smooth. If acceleration is not smooth adjustments to the carburetor may be necessary. (See Carburetor settings )
- If your engine does not start, repeat steps 6 through 10.
Engine Break In
Use a good quality 2 cycle engine oil Use a fuel mixture of 20:1 or 25:1 (Bench running) Use this fuel mixture for approximately 2-3 hours of run time, we suggest that you bench run the engine to become familiar with it operation. A high Octane unleaded fuel (98 Octane is ideal) is recommended. Do not run the engine at full throttle for more than ten seconds during this test stand break in as the engine will not be getting the normal cooling effect that you would get if the engine was in a model that was flying. The GP36R engine requires approximately 12-20 hours of running time to complete the break-in process. We recommend using a smaller propeller during the engine break-in period.
Engine Cooling
A proper cooling system is vital for any engine. An air-cooled engine requires
an appropriately sized air intake. Also to keep this air-cooling process
working the incoming air must be exhausted. Further, the exhaust air outlet
should be four times (4X) the size of the cool air intake.
Example:
10 square inches of air intake area would require.
40 square inches of exhaust air outlet area It is up to you to ensure that the
air flows freely to, over, and away from, the hot cylinder(s) and muffler(s).
DC-CDI details:
The DC-CDI module is a Micro Controller Type Electronic Ignition Module with
Auto Advanced Timing. Please observe the following operational requirements:
Pilots checklist
We strongly recommend checking the following items regularly for your own safety before starting!
- Check the propeller bolts for tightness
- Check that the spinner is firmly attached
- Check the propeller for possible damage
- Check to be sure you have the throttle position at idle
- Check all batteries
- Check servo functions
- Check to see that the ignition switch is OFF
- Check the pressure (6-8 bar) system of retracting (if applicable)
- Check all linkages for play
- Check your wheels for possible damage and easy running
- Check the wing mounting for tight fit and proper attachment
- Check the canopy for tight fit and proper attachment
- When starting the engine one person (minimum) has to hold the airplane
Trouble Shooting
Problem | Solution |
---|---|
The engine is flooded (the crankshaft housing is filled with fuel). | Remove |
the spark plug; turn the engine to a position where the fuel runs out.
The engine starts after being choked but then stops soon after.| The low
needle on the carburetor is probably too lean. Go back to the recommended
settings and adjust your carburetor from there. This problem may also indicate
a dirty carburetor or faulty ignition.
The engine runs rough and is vibrating strongly.| Balance the propeller. Check
the ignition timing. Check your plumbing for air/fuel leaks. Check your spark
plug for carbon and check the spark plug gap. Check the motor mount to be sure
it is rigid. Check to make sure the engine is mounted on a level surface so
that the crankcase is free of tension. Check the engine and propeller bolts.
The engine doesn’t reach a normal RPM at full throttle.| Check the carburetor
settings. Check to see if the propeller is too large. Verify that you have the
correct muffler system. Check to see if the engine is overheating. Check the
ignition timing. Check the spark plug for defects. Verify you have the correct
gasoline, and oil, and have mixed them with the correct ratio.
You can order any spare parts under the direction of this form easily from our distributor or local hobby shop.
