Click on the link and watch the video Kenny. You will see that the little motor runs. Why a lunch box? Hm.....sounds like real "fast food."

Tommy, thats nothing.


At the Weak Signals Akron R/C Show i saw a completely real and working V8 engine, the size of a lunchbox!

Andy thats not my workshop. I found that while surfing around do it yourself CNC conversions sites. Sorry if you thought that was mine.

My junk can be seen in the Any Thing But Ships section of this forum. Im the fool with the Induma knee mill build.

That little motor would be the cooest thing in a 1/4 or whatever scale RC drag boat!

The little motor was a 1" bore
A crank stroke of .90"
Eight cylanders.

Formula for figuring cubinc inch displacement:

Bore squared X Stroke X Number of Cylanders X .7845 wich is the quence area of the cylander heads.

Ex using this motor:

1" X 1" X .90" X .7845 X 8 = 5.6484 C.I.

The workshop is stunning, Tommy. Now, if only there was a 1/72nd scale marine steam turbine in there! :heh:

Cheers.
