Really nice package here. Love the long term vision of getting more people in the sport and giving them a platform where they can upgrade single components without having to swap every part. This sport will only survive if companies/people take the risk and offer correctly priced products like...
Hey folks,
I’m tired of struggling to remove crank bearings with the wrong size/type separator. Anyone have a reasonably priced recommendation for one that can pull the front and rear bearing?
TIA

My XFR spins ok but it’s heavy. I’ve got a lot more power and still struggle sometimes to get clean tail up spins. Couple things to try, more speed, prehop left if you are spinning right, use half trim on spin, steeper prehop. Power is going to be a problem for the type of spins you want to do
You’d need a way to transfer the 0 degree mark to the flywheel snout to do that. I think you’d introduce a lot of inaccuracy doing that. I guess I could use a straight edge to bring the mark down to the hole in the degree wheel
ok finally got it. Appears to be 66 degrees counterclockwise of top dead center on mag side cylinder. To measure, I found TDC with a dial indicator. I then zeroed my digital angle finder on the top of the cylinder. I then used a straight edge and layed it flat on the keyway and measured. Did...
ok figured it out (still need to confirm). I believe its 56 degrees before cylinder 1 TDC. I theorize this because the start of the lumps line up exactly with the key on a 760 flywheel. 760 static timing is 56 degrees. I also roughly confirmed it is close to 56 with an angle finder sitting...
Does anyone happen to know how many degrees the crank keyway is offset from cylinder 1 TDC? I designed a crank and this is the last thing I need to add. Idk why genius Yamaha didn’t just line it up with…. Anything. Figured I’d ask before I go figure out how to measure this…
Just stumbled back on this thread... I've been using one of these cheap motors for a while now. also have that exact 90 degree head pictured above. Both work reasonably well. The shaft gets hot near the head so its definitely not the best quality but the price is definitely right. What are...
Just FYI, if it’s megasquirt based (I believe this one is) it’s not CDI. It uses smart coils from a mercury outboard with internal inductive drivers (IGN-1A coils). The ECU is just controlling a 5v signal to tell the coil to charge and discharge
you’ll need to find what’s shorted to ground. Start by disconnected the coils. Idk what year you have but there’s an adapter between harness and ECU that is all non tinned wire and will probably be heavily corroded. The bottom line is you have to find the short. It’s not like a GFI you reset or...
What type of CNC work will you be doing and on what machines? I’m just a hobbyist but I find myself spending most of my time learning machine specific things for my Fadal. If you have no machining experience I’d suggest learning the basics of machining first. This old Tony on YouTube is good and...
