Engine Break In Bench

[Crash]

Hello Guys,

Need your help~

going to build a break in bench.

Below are the pillow back bearings and solid shaft stock.

Take a look and give your opinion, there are many choices of bearings and steel rod stock to choose from.

I want to keep it inexpensive. This will be made by parts available to all of us on the web. so, you can easily point and click the parts too. website: grainger.com

next, I need opinions on a prop. I know nothing about props.

also, throttle control ideas. I was thinking of using a old am radio with a servo. although, not sure if that is necessary.

Of coarse Ill be using HPI's plastic spur gear. 47tooth

shoot your ideas and suggestions and lets build a break in bench'




Thanks
Danny

i know you like to build your own stuff. here is a link to the one that Jud's gettin for X-mas.

Just so you have an idea and don't end up spending more $$ on a build than what it would cost to buy one 😛eace:

If you look hard enough, mine was about half that price and offers many benefits over that design.

couldnt you make one out of a set of "A" arms dogbone center diff and an old wheel/tire combo that later can be used to balance your tires as well?and of course the knuckle and c hub?

the prop is for load and cooling as it pushes air over the said mill
