THanks Big Bo.

Almost as good as looking at plugs.

I'm likin that Sky Launcher model.

Now your really joggin my memory.

Friend of mine had a model he made that had an engine.
It had a battery that hooked up to the "glow plug" and you had to prime the engine with fuel then flip the prop over a 1,000 times to get a response before it kicked over and konked out.

Guys would stand around offering their advice: " your turning the prop the wrong way, needs a new glow plug, battery is too weak, fuel is bad".
Don't think that thing ever got off the ground.
