    Description

    McCoy
    Red Head
    .19 Engine
    For Control Line, Free Flight or Radio Control Model Airplanes
    Silky smooth rotation, then tight, solid compression
    The photos show details of condition - very good to excellent
    The last time I ran it (late 1960's) it was strong, powerful and would "sing" when adjusted for power, typical of the McCoy Red Head family of engines.
    It has been properly stored since then.
    If you have operated any McCoy Red Head engines you know this is a reliable,  powerful, high performance, 2-stroke
    power-plant.
    If you have not operated any McCoy Red Heads you are in for a treat!
    Manage your fingers during engine start. Some use an electric drill fitted with a rubber unit to engage and spin the prop.
    This engine has a flexible needle valve adjusting extension which helps keep fingers away from the spinning propeller. Adjust until the engine "sings", then enjoy!
    There are still many of the classic balsa air frame models available for which this is the preferred engine. I looked on ebay and was surprised at how many are still out there.
    This means you can use this engine as it was intended, even if you have never done this before. Perhaps you may even find a new hobby or experience.
    I believe this to be a fully functional and strong running engine. It is sold as is with no express nor implied warranty and no returns.
    The opening bid price is well below most of the other similar engines being offered now.
