Exhaust deflector needed

divay99 · February 28, 2011, 07:49:09 PM

Hi All,

I need some exhaust deflectors for .46 size engine, all the LHS seem to have run out of stock .. does anyone have the same or could provide an alternate solution ... am tired of cleaning the muck of the plane

use fuel with 12% synthetic ester based lube - not klotz

your exhaust residue will reduce by 75%

and yes your engine will be fine

PayLessFlyMore lists them, with no indication they are out of stock.

Hello saikat, please provide some more information about this lube like brand, availability and better if you post picture of the container/bottle. Klotz is too expensive and it is only available at Delhi (Rajiv Jain) and outside India. So it will be useful if you tell us in details about the lube you are using.

I bought one from RC Dhamaka some 2 weeks back for my OS 46 AX. Call them and see.

Which Klotz are you referring to? The KL 200 is fully synthetic and the little residue that it leaves, is very easy to clean. Maybe you have used the one with castor oil blend.

And with 12% on a 2C engine, one will have to be very careful about the needle setting at full throttle.

PM your address. I am reasonably certain I have one and will send it to you.

Thank you for the kind offer Sushil Sir... but I finally found one ... it is people like yourself who bring a smile to ones face by offerings of your kindness. Thank you so very much

No problem at all, got this idea from spad to the bone.

I am referring to MOTUL Micro which is a far superior
lub oil than Klotz.(my opinion ...)

Unfortunately I do not think this is available in India
although its readily available in UK.

A colleague bought back a 2 ltr pack from the UK.
