using an old Enya 35 in a rc car
I found my dad's old Enya 35 model 5224 engine that he used to use for his model aircrafts long long ago, he started it by winding the propellor or something, so what i want to know is whether i could put that engine in a rc car that i wanna set up. And how would u start it in a car if it doesn't have a starter?
any suggestions or help would be appreciated...
thanx y'all

You can try using an HPI flywheel and clutch assembly then using a starter box. I'm not sure if that engine will support any type of Tiger Drive or pull start.
What car are you trying to put this engine in?

i thought of putting it in an offroad buggy... but the more people i speak to they say it will just be easier to get an electric motor...rather than all the hassle of an old engine
