Ryobi rc conversion

this is my old 28cc trimmer. I converted it with parts from wacker engines. I removed the gasket on the reid housing and used locktite 515, just a thin coat and used a thinner gasket betwen th crank case and cylinder. To rase the compresion a bit. It is useing a master air screw clasic 18-8. I can get betwen 6950rpm to 6990rpm and idle to 1350rpm. It now flying in my ultra spad stick the video is posted on you tube. The engine has lots of power for big loops and good power for the plane. The plane weighs 15 lbs with the skis. The engine with prop is 4lbs on the nose.
