Hirobo Shuttle Z TS

ukez · 02-17-2011, 11:42 AM

Hello gentlemen, I was just wondering if someone could tell me which glow plug I need for my little Hirobo Shuttle Z TS. I've basically dug out my old RC helicopter which has been tucked away for around 7+ years, I've just bought new batteries and fuel but If I remember right It also needed a glow plug.

I think, the engine it has in it is an Irvine 36, so If anyone can suggest a suitable glow plug for it I'd really appreciate it.

Many Thanks
Regards
UKEZ

I can't as prior packing it away into storage I had already taken it off to do exactly that but just never got around to doing so for whatever reason, god knows where it is now as that was years ago.

Surely one of you knowledgeable frequent flyers must be able to help me out with this, please.

Found this on the web - I would use OS #8 have never used enya #3

OS #8
This is the plug everyone told me to use. It is very good. It's a hot plug which is necessary if you run a rich low end. The durability is better then any plug I have used. Durability of a plug means how well it will withstand a brief lean run. I have had over a hundred flights on this plug.Enya #3
It's equivalent to the OS #8 in durability and is just a little hotter. I have heard more and more people prefer this plug over any other.
