😄❤️🏆♾️🙏🏼🥇✅
Yep.... That's just like a shovel head..... Had a few.... That's awesome.
Cheers man
Super neat. Bet it would be cool to build a radio controlled car, and power it with one of these.
Wow the sound is excellent!
Thank you very much!
Shovelheads Forever🤘🏼
💪
Nice! been waiting for the shovel!
Hope you like it!
Wicked Stevo, love it. Never heard of these guys but it looks....and sounds perfect 👍😂
So good
Cool little engine.
I think so too!
Front cylinder is beyond rich. Didn't know if you noticed the puffs of black smoke it kept making. Would most likely idle better and smooth out once the exhaust is on and the carb is adjusted.
Pretty darn cool though!
EXACTLY. at lower speeds the engine was only firing on ONE cylinder....... Doh !!
Yeah this was just straight out of the box. That's how I like to show it. Then I make tune it
Nice, love it 😀
Thank you! Cheers!
Pretty bloody, nice n shiny too. Cool piece to have on display 😎Very reasonable on the price too 👍
It really is!
Love the sound and how it shakes lol!!
Brother, I had to clear the bloody table. Shaking shit everywhere, haha
@@RCTanksTrucks247 LOL!! yes!! same here when I fired up the pan head Shit hit the floor faster than I could watch where it went! HaHa!
It's not a temp sensor, it's a hall effect sensor so the CDI knows where top dead centre is so it can fire the plug at I would assume around 8* btdc and then advance as rpm rises
No this is a separate wire from memory
Even starts like a Harley !!
👍
Love it
Cheers
Your amazing my man keep this work uo please u showing me alot of ehat i csn try to do
I appreciate that
Love the sound of it. I know it would be an odd fit, but I would love to see this engine in some sort of RC "buggy".
Great video
That would be cool!
Use pulleys, servo runs the throttle. Easiest one to hook up
I came here to hear the Cison engine, but I fell in love with the 'old school clamp'.
Haha hand down from my grandfather
Wires that go to the crankcase are for a magnetic sensor or optical, red wire positive black negative and white is signal.
👍
I love it... would love to have one in my shop to compliment my real Harley shovel head..I would probably build a 1/6 scale with it....military bike with side car....thank you for the review
That would be cool!
I bet that miniature HD engine kicks out more power than the real one,
🤔
lol i watched a screw dance off the bench between the wall and the bench when you started it up :)
Cheers mate
Crazy! A two cycle Shovel...
? 4 stroke mate
It’s almost like cute !
Indeed
I so want one
Just have to convince the wife that I need a model harley trike on the shop counter to use as a pencil sharpner. 😆🇦🇺👍
Lmao! Love it
And it’s good to see they don’t have a big fly wheel like the older motor they built that you couldn’t really make it bolt up to scale for a bike
Trike would be awesome
Haha that’s so neat! It’s like a Harley with the sound it makes. Very nice. Can you also run it on regular gas as well?
Yes you can!
I'm glad I took the time to notice that you make a habit of running these engines straight out of the box with no tuning. Has someone new to this hobby, I think I wouldn't have bothered without that disclaimer. Otherwise the idea of spending 500 bucks on a tiny engine without water cooling and that needs a drill to start it and stalls frequently and is kind of finicky just doesn't seem too smart.
But no one's ever accused me of being brightest bulb on the planet, so maybe something like this is in my future after all.
Really looking forward to seeing if you can get it to run well and what you did to get it there. There is a fair amount out there on the V1 engine, but hardly any on the V2 yet.
My plan is to build it into a vehicle that should be going fast enough to have the air cooling work well enough. I would really want to use regular gas though, because it sounds like Nitro is really expensive and can be tricky to run well consistently, especially during changes of temperature.
A couple of questions:
1) you say it will run on gas but I'm imagining you would need different plugs. Do you know which ones those are, and is that all you would need?
2) that toothed gear on the drive shaft looks particularly useful, not only to connect to a propeller or wheels, but also to rig to starter. From the few small engines I've looked at, it looks like many of them can fairly easy accommodate adding an electric starter, I'm wondering if this engine is an exception?
3) I heard somewhere along the way that running an engine too cool can be as bad for it as running it too hot. It would suck to have this engine run lousy or even grenade itself inside for being off on temperature one way or the other. The only idea that comes readily to mind is Jerry rigging an adjustable air barrier to basically lower when the engine is running hotter, and raise when it is getting too cool. Is there a better way of regulating temperature with this kind of engine? Does it say in the manual or do you have an idea as to what the ideal running temperature range of the engine is? Any tips on remote Bluetooth type engine temperature gauges, and where best to put the sensor?
To me, either this or the mini engamor (sp?) V8 qualify as the best sounding engines in this hobby. Huge difference in price, but to me they are both pretty expensive for what they are. I don't think I could justify buying either or getting into this hobby at all if I knew at the outset that these engines are really designed to be no more than desktop toys. Either that or they are too difficult or too unreliable to bother integrating into a cool RC vehicle. I know very little about this Hobby. Can anyone care to chime in as to how well these little engines might hold up in a decently designed RC setup, or are they really designed to be nothing more than overpriced desktop noise makers? (regardless of how much I like their sound)
I'd love to hear any feedback on any of these observations, either here in the comments or in a future video.
Damn it I hate how good these sound and how much of a pain in the ass they're probably going to be if I ever get one, lol.
👍
I've seen everyone on CZcams destroy these out of the box on the first run. They all seem to have ignition problems, the Pan especially.
I thought an oil pump was available as an accessory. Fuel mix to me leaves the bottom end dry.
I love the looks and like the real thing deserve respect.
Properly mounted, better pipes or trim the supplied ones to drag stile.
C'mon Steve. Set it up properly. Everyone else on CZcams has destroyed these little wonders straight out of the box.
I'd love one and If I could afford one, I wouldn't be wrecking it.
Can't wait to see it run well in your hands Steve. 🙏🇦🇺I stand corrected, Johnny has a Panhead running, like you, he has skills.
Never had an issue with these. It runs on nitro so the fuel has oil in it, therefore no need for an oil pump
Runs like an old Harley as well.. I love Harley so need for comments...
👌
wow
Thank you
You can use it to built rc Morgan 3-wheeler that's powered by Harley engine.
Yeah that's what I thought of too
I need 2, to drive my roller blades🤣👍
lol
For a little bit more you can buy a shovel mother and it will start easier and idle better
Super
It is very cute
Cheers
They need to make one big enough for a mini bike 👍
Cheers mate
S&S do. It's an 80 cubic inch V2 👍
Engines like back pressure you will burn the valves out
👍
Awesome! If that beast is like every other Chinese metal product, it would benefit from checking all the screws for loctite. That vibration be deadly!
What do you think, sell a million because "Harley guys" or is the made in China factor a killer? Gotta think a licensed direct from Harley version would sell in America... maybe even at the double high price required to make it in America
Definitely check, lock tight is your friend, haha
In a vice! Come on man!
Do you have a chassis to put it in?
Hey Steve. What would be cool. Is you make a 3 or 4 wheel frame and put that engine in it. Great video man
That would be cool
That's why I am here like the car dangit I can't remember what it's called but it's a British car....ahh a Morgan two wheels in the front engine mounted transverse
@@newbornlog2789 Or a Robin... 😂
Very Cool. Now all you have to do is build a rolling frame for it.
That's the plan!
@@RCTanksTrucks247 I'll gladly look forward to this.
I'm no wrench but wont running it without pipes burn out your valves ?
Maybe extended running but not for a few minutes
They need to do a Knuckle head next...
I think I would take it all apart and balance everything.
Cheers mate
I was cringing waiting for it to catch the spark plug wire 😬 Other then that badass!
👍
Good morning. Do you use a different CDI?
Yeah you can
I have a couple of rc bikes I’d love one of these to make a to scale Harley shovel,so it’s the $500 price in Au? Il try get one at some point wen I’m not broke
Yeah approx mate. Great engine
Is it °45 ?
Hmm 🤔 I have to check
Make a small scale Harley bike with that thing man!
Time and money. Plus the main thing is balance. That would be a nightmare
@@RCTanksTrucks247 Use one of training wheels thing to keep it standing.
@@RCTanksTrucks247 They make R/C bikes. Once it is going, it will want to stay up from the centrifugal force of the wheels. Doooooo iiiiit! LOL
Just like it’s bigger counterparts shakes everything loose and shit.
Shakes like crazy indeed
The cam is too big🔥💪👍🏻😃
Haha
I’m sure it would run better with exhaust.
Yeah man totally
can you build a whole bike though them?
There is no frame available
@@RCTanksTrucks247 i suppose if you get into it you'd want to build that yourself anyway. i had a couple pans but consider myself a shovel guy .. stuck in a twincam body?
Maybe it'll warp an exhaust valve or two before you're smart enough to put the pipes on.
Yeah haven't run it for too long mate 👍
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Cheers mate
should install it on a motorcycle.
Too hard. Need a custom chassis and then gearbox, clutch and the biggest issue is the gyro/balance
I wanna put one on my mountain bike.
Lmao this thing is not going to power a pedal bike with a human on it the most It can maybe push is an RC car
@@tonydetwiler2624
Actually I have a smaller engine on my bike now.
It’s all about the gearing and ratios mate.
This would be a major upgrade.
We’ve even used said RC car electric motors to propel a bike up to about 35KPH on a flat track using a 4S LiPo.
@@tonydetwiler2624
There’s a home engineer on CZcams that made a 10speed go about 40KPH on a tiny drone motor.
@@jbirdmax nah it’s not possible without a lot of work and re-designing stuff,make a video about it
@@tonydetwiler2624 I’ll try to post one here. I don’t mind satisfying your curiosity, but give me an hour or so.
I’m at work.
I would add a bigger flywheel....
If they made one sure
Runs like a real shovelhead to.
Crazy ay
Kind of seemed like she was only running on one cylinder and that may be why it was so violent 🤔🤷♂️
Nah, definitely two. Just the nature of these engines.
Those pipes are absolutely disgusting . They should put some effort to make a decent pipe for that price. At least microcosm engine looks nicer and mounted on a base
Yeah man
My bet is that is just a two stroke shaped like a shovel head.. no ot dosent sound like a shovel head ..not to my ear ..it sound loud is all .
Better in person. There was so much stuff shaking on the shelf
Giv me
Lol
Send it too mee. You not need dhis engine…
🤔
Thanks but horrible work bench, rattles like#
Yeah that's what I said in the video too
500th like
👍
Too rich
Black smoke
👍
Except for the crankcase it looks more like an ironhead.
👍
$500 for something that does absolutely nothing??lmfao
Oh so the fact it starts and runs is nothing?
That’s what somebody who’s never had $500 to spend on a hobby would say lol. I’m sure my $700 pocket knife I carry for work would bother you to.
@@robertfish6779 Nobody gives a crap about your knife dude. That may be the dumbest thing I've heard in years.
@@RCTanksTrucks247 No it really isn't. This type of engine has been produced in the tens of thousands. Seems like a way to pluck 500.00 bucks out of someone. But hey if it makes somebody money I guess that's something.
@@matthewmoilanen787 ah man not having enough money to enjoy real hobbies!!!! Ahh darn. I’m going to call others dumb because of my lack of financial freedom!!! You bastards.
Rip off seen the panhead one for 70.00 with free shipping.
Lol good one mate
Not worth the $700 they want for them, not even close!
Each to their own bro
Sound horrible.
🤔
That huge engine is only 15cc? Shiney paper weight...
Not really. People have installed it into things and it had heaps of torque
