RE: MAGNUM 57
I just bought a Magnum kit, and am almost finished. New to the boat hobby, and I'm curious how everybody is turning off the engine ?? A kill switch or another means ??? The kit and RTR do not come with a kill switch.
Thanks, Newmer

RE: MAGNUM 57
yea i have a zenoah 260 WHH list there,s as zenoah 25 same thing .. i mix 1 gallon at a time and run 7 ounce oil to 1 gallon gas...i think if you use 6-8 ounces to 1 gallon you should be fine... sounds like your running lean check to see factory setting on H side and set needle there to start... i think it is 1 1/2 out but not sure so check first

Hey Magnum 57 I also have a 46SS mod with a dry pipe. Finished decorating the 57. My buddy
Pyro 2 & I are professional pyrotechnicians so we kinda have a love for fireworks. His 57 is decorated like mine also. We had a good time with it.

Go to warehousehobbies.com and read the article Tony wrote on oil. Title is Oil A Must Read. Too many people contaminate their gas with too much oil!! Its worth the read.

Hey pyro1
WHH has been doing this along time and that read was great. I buy all my stuff from Tony and they just make everything easy. My boats are all stock and why change what works. On the mods I see you might need more oil in the mix. My problem is like hdking46 said and probably the H needle needs adj. To 86 the wa, wa, wa, at full throttle. Thanks for the the advice. Your Magnums look sweet with the fire works show on them !!!! Did your SS come with a cowling or open like that ??? Sweet pipe.

Hey Perry,
Two Two Two boats for fun. Well three now. Good to hear from you here in forum land. Mama's ok with it. She thinks I' m nuts. Well she knows I'm nuts. I just can't stop buying these things. Cant wait to get the trailer and pull the 57 around the dock @ the Lake with my Genisis. Rocky will do you rite.[8D]

Awsome day. The new homelite runs sweet. Even after I caught it on fire.[&o] Being a newbie has its risks. Dont pull the plug and pull the rope when fuel was spilled in the head. No real problen. Just scared the You know out of me The ride was great. I got a CRF 450x. I'tll make you pee your pants it so fast.[X(] I'll tell ya the 46" WHH supersport is so stinken fast for a rookie like me. flipped it and you know went swimming.[8D] Dried it out and ran great. very forgiving boat. This hobbie kicks major league but. Hope ur day was a great one.

Hey Bill,
You know it bro. I had a great time this weekend with mine. The WHH 46" supersport is awsome also. Now my buddy Hurricain showed me his gas RC truck and I have a itch for one. I have the CEN Genisis nitro. Waiting for my whitebone trailer to pull the Magnum around at the lake. I'm looking at the 26cc Bigfoot. Mama's going to be ticked off another new toy. Oh well thanks Perry for showing me another new toy to spend $ on

Yes, got the kit done about 2 weeks ago. Almost finished the 3rd tank, and noticed the engine is starting to really come alive !!! Took it to a graphics place yesterday, told them the theme I was looking for, and now I'm just waiting to see what they came up with. I'll post some pics once it is done.
