Ortsa that's like saying flimig a bullet at high speed is the same as moving it in the air by throwing it.

[@WarpedYT]

HA ... Nice idea !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@pistonhead2k]

@Valentin Julio Spam, and InstaPortal is a SCAM!

[@nixie2462]

DAMMIT! this needs some slow mo guys treatment! Someone contact them and make this happen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@WarpedYT]

We were the first to do this. yup ...

[@johnnyq90]

Yeap. And I have to say it's awesome!

[@danielgrampa624]

I saw you Video ... awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@WarpedYT]

johnnyq90 thank you , I am honored !!!. your the number on video recommended after ours and I linked this vid to ours as suggested !.

[@henryrollins9177]

Armilar Zifferblatt To see what..? the crankshaft turning slower..? it would be senseless... You can actually see what happens when they start the engine. Thats all...no magic involved.

[@wyvern4588]

It's amazing how these little engines can survive GALLONS of nitro fuel turning out 10K- 40K RPMS and .5-3.0+ HP. Not a big surprise when one can seize up within seconds of lean running or incorrect fuel. Call me old fashioned, but nothing beats the sound and smell of a nitro vehicle.

[@masterpebeh7390]

40k rpm? it make no sense..

[@Jberg44Games]

Wyvern I agree I had a nitro rc car, thin was a blast. Engine is broken though

[@zesprixx]

Only people that know how to tune get their engines reving close to that, Those bashers that run their engines super rich dont hit 20k rpms..

[@lazar2175]

250cc two stroke beats it by a mile,not only sounding good,but also smelling good. And these little things? I think wankel one sounds way better.

[@tylercurtis441]

hell even my airplane motors dont get much past 14k rpm static.

[@DerKrawallkeks]

Wooow, this is awesome!!! Love it. Never seen that on a two stroke. And on a nitro engine especially. It's impressive how much oil there actually is

[@killerbanjo]

That's what I was thinking, 2 strokes lead an easier life than I thought!

[@DerKrawallkeks]

Yea! Exactly! But I think it would also be a different story on a bigger engine. With 1/25 or 1/50 oil mix, I can't imagine it would splash around like that down in the crankcase. I mean these nitro engines run ridiculous 20 or more percent of oil I think;)

[@killerbanjo]

Oh wow I didn't know that. Yeah I have a 300 2 stroke that I run at 40:1 Would be cool to see what happens in an engine like that for sure...

[@RCGrid]

DerKrawallkeks yup, usually around 20% oil. It's not cheap either haha

[@DerKrawallkeks]

yea.. I guess you don't to cut it open:D

[@fordrac1ng81]

Lathes are probably one of the most satisfying things to watch on camera

[@psychogat3]

I think it would be cooler with a 4 stroke engine so you could see how the oil flows around in there at high speeds

[@Runenaldo]

It would look exactly the same, as there is no oil in the crankshaft housing on a model engine.

[@atomic4440]

Rune Eide Hansen You're wrong. In a two stroke engine the oil is in the fuel air mixture. The oil goes on the moving parts of the engines, the rest of the mixture reaches the piston.

[@Runenaldo]

Maybe I wasn't clear enough, so I will try again. I read Matts comment as he thought that there would be an oil sump like in a car engine and I so I tried to explain that, that wouldn't be the case on a model four stroke nitro engine. So Atomic NeRd, yes I'm very well aware that on most two stroke engines the fuel is mixed with oil for lubrication , but on a four stroke model RC nitro engine its the same as there is no oil sump.

[@atomic4440]

Rune Eide Hansen Sorry, my bad. I expected some Rc 4-stroke engines to have an oil pump for lubrication...

[@PhotonlcInduction]

Some do if you consider all home machined model 4-stroke engines. But RC 4-stroke engines, usually used in aircraft, won't.

[@Z4G.]

Seems like a growing trend to have certain parts of the engine transparent haha. love it!

[@PerryCodes]

Next project.... 100% Visible Nitro Engine!!

[@compressorhead02]

Perry Codes already done the engine is entirely visible

[@PerryCodes]

If you're talking about this one... I disagree. You don't see the piston as well as the other 50% of the crankshaft. What are you talking about?

[@compressorhead02]

I'm really fuckin high dude I probably am being free etarded

[@LtCatfish]

Perry Codes that would be awesome

[@Monz-jy9hl]

That would be great😂😂

[@kurtidze]

PLEASE SEND THIS TO SLOWMOGUYS

[@evren.builds]

So they can slow it down :P

[@OversteerEngineer]

or you can spin it by hand and film it XD same effect

[@Sbullakis87]

a chronos 1.4 will do the trick !

[@brandonfesser1893]

No, send it to Ben Krasnow of the Applied Science KZbin channel.

[@Spirit532]

Or send it to me, I have multiple high-speed cameras! :D I need to replicate this... I've got a lathe, but I don't have any PMMA or a nitro engine.

[@ZzzRoofus]

dude use a strobe light on that thing. would look sick.

[@billymanilli]

..and Blacklights with a Disco ball!! ;)

[@ZzzRoofus]

Grand Negus there's always room for improvement

[@thedude7726]

this explains why the belly of my rc gets oily

[@inspireonex]

3:00 - your welcome

[@timjs1018]

I'm very excited to see one of my favorite youtubers is into my favorite hobby, glow engines!! Also, like everyone already said, this NEEDS to be seen in slow motion. It just has to.

[@chrissalter989]

Its really good to see how the vapour in the fuel is used for ignition and some of the oil remains in the body, it would be really interesting to see how rich/lean tuning affects the oil content in the body, hint hint 😁

[@sanantonionolimitrcracing]

I been waiting for ever for videos of this nitro engines being modified and experimented with love it!

[@poppopscarvinshop]

That's Really Awesome! It's Amazing those little engines operate without flying into a thousand pieces! It would be cool to somehow use a strob light and see what kind of cool things could be seen! Great Video, Thanks Much & Have Fun!

[@RTDragonCommando]

It's actually interesting how you can see the oil level in the bottom of the engine case change with throttle position. With the throttle open and more fuel (and thus oil) coming in, there's a rise in oil level, and then it drops when the throttle is closed.

[@owaishussain5526]

You should do pit after run oil in it and show us how it gets ground.

[@bboydrummer1]

super cool! There is a lot more oil than I expected.

[@mikew3232]

Great video, I didn't realise there's that much fuel in the crankcase. Shame the 914 people who disliked the video haven't a clue how a engine works. More education needed on their behalf.

[@upsidedowndog1256]

Nice tool usage. The pressure waves 2 strokes go through ate clearly visible. Nice job.

[@travis4798]

Nice. Need a slower engine to do that with. Maybe a 4 stroke weed whacker engine, get it to idle slower then it usually does.

[@JosephZirkov]

My co worker came in and thought this sounded like a female vibrator. lol!!

[@Crazystuffyousee]

Very cool. Thank you. Answers some questions people ask about 2-stroke crank lubrication. But I'm surprised to see that little crank is only supported on one side.....

[@Pertamax7-HD]

Nice nitro

[@jamesbonde4470]

Well, that's quite instructive. A significant pool of fuel at the bottom of the case. And it doesn't get cleared out at full throttle. This proof that you should always run your engine dry. Take the fuel line off and spin the engine a few times with the clip on. You'll find the engine will give you a burst at least once and usually two or more times. The reason you want to run it dry at the end of the day is because the pooled oil can cause the ball bearings to rust. The Nitromethane is the culprit. Many fuel makers claim that this isn't necessary because they have rust inhibitors in their fuel. That may be so, but I never take the chance. As well, if you put an engine away for an extended time, the volatiles will evaporate and you will be left with a gummed up engine. Different oils have different characteristics, the synthetics not so much but castor oil is the worst.

[@djaydeved]

ive watched this like 4 times over the year idfk why edit: i put yearS not knowing that htis was uploaded earlyier this year but if felt like last year damn time flys

[@tomfey6020]

Thanks for that. A lot more oil in there than I'd expect.

[@Marc-hp3ne]

Thanks for making this. I wondered and you have shown!

[@oisiaa]

It's kind of terrifying to think that physical objects can move so quickly.

[@un_civilized]

I wish I had this guys workshop

[@rcdieselrc]

Nice! I've been thinking about doing this for years.

[@chrismarino9542]

Very cool, nice work. I have a hard time understanding how anyone could give this a thumbs down. They are probably on welfare.

[@dfwboxingisback9173]

The internals of a nitro engine is one of the most violent places the earth has to offer. That is fact.

[@carnage50x]

sounds like my friends rx8

[@AllAroundBang]

I love seeing the oil accumulate!

[@mikesrcgarage]

Very Kool... the see through head was a bit more visual... How did you get involved in machining? Another great vid!

[@JasonBlack66]

believe it or not you can use a flame to polish acrylic plastics (if thats acrylic IDK)

[@jonathantatler]

Excellent!! You so need to show that in slomo

[@bikelife_esp]

Fuking really cool videos. you have to do more thins like this, they are amazing!!

[@michaelovitch]

You need a stroboscope now.

[@Fosten12]

we need a slomo of this

[@EJProMods]

use strobe light. just simple white led triggering from crank it will make much more interesting view inside.

[@guerrillaradio9953]

DUDE, great idea! Way to make a "high speed cam" for cheap! (not "technically", but it will still be a great effect, esp. if you play with the timing.)

[@EJProMods]

Yes by adjusting trigger angle or better electronically delay You can see different positions of crank

[@VasyaIvanovichPupkin]

Please send this one to Slow-Mo Guys here on KZbin. It would be great to see the fuel mixture coming in through the crankshaft at 25000fps!

[@justmichael510]

i have a rc nitro buggy and it's cool see finally how much this thing run fast, these little bastard can easily pass 20.000 rpm! mine is a high performance one and can reach 40.000 rpm

[@popanollie1]

this is really cool, but +1 to the idea of the high speed camera

[@zelon88]

Interesting. Perhaps I'm mistaken, but it almost seems as if the turbulence of the conrod is helping to separate the oil from the fuel.

[@jandresmartinez3391]

impresionante como trabaja un motor buen video educativo

[@adelaideautowashes]

3:18 nitro engine V-TEC

[@scannaunderscore1]

at least u can see how it stays lubed as it runs

[@altaroffire56]

Someone give this guy a Chronos 1.4 camera for christmas.

[@sethfrancissimracing7558]

This is so cool! Any chance you could make one of these for me if I paid you? I work at a hobby shop and would love to do this myself just to show my co workers and what not.

[@57dogsbody]

Amazed at how much fuel/oil remains unatomised in the crankcase, I realise they run a much higher percentage of oil in the mix than say a motorcycle engine does, but even so!

[@JHoese37]

Shitty fuel had high oil.

[@slantedperspective]

TUNE THE DAMN ENGINE!!!

[@Tom-gh8lz]

never knew there was that much oil in the case of a 2 stroke

[@ramsay4804]

that is awesome....well done

[@jakeramsay]

Next a reliable nitro engine😂

[@woshigepro2]

The slow mo part is giving me about extra 1% clarity

[@cetGT3]

Please make a see through head so we can look inside the combustion chamber

[@69storky]

great work again love how you machine good idea. it show how much oil seat there . love to do one in air cool gokart motor on different oil on the head and bottom end

[@mrfourtysevenman]

it needs to be filmed in slow motion :D

[@MeiGoji]

imagine trying to do a see through rotary engine [if it works]

[@TheVitruvius]

So the gasoline lubricates the crankshaft?

[@Mr_Jack_Shelby]

TheVitruvius nitro fuel has oil mixed in with it,like 2 stroke

[@TheVitruvius]

Thanks Jack

[@dougankrum3328]

.RC 'Nitro' fuel....Castor Oil, 25% nitromethane, alcohol....

[@kalleklp7291]

Did you glue the acrylic plate to the axle nearest the spindle?

[@MrBranboom]

See through the mechanical eye, and it gazes into you.

[@charleswatts1864]

That is awesome! For some reason, I was expecting the fuel/air to foam in the crank case.

[@prophetsnake]

It's caled a glow engine. Nitromethane is only an additive.

[@SirArghPirate]

doesn' t the heaț destroy the acrylic glass?

[@superalvin7208]

Acrylic is pretty heat resistant

[@bbuildingmarch7060]

SirArghPirate It does get pretty warm down there but I don't think there's enough heat to melt the acrylic. If it was at the top of the engine where the combustion actually takes place, then it might melt

[@glurpak]

datstocklyfe Imagine that 3mm plexi glass starts getting soft at constant 150-160 degrees Celcius and that piece is much thicker.

[@Anvilshock]

I'd be more worried about the solvents in the fuel attacking the glass, mucking up bearings as the dissolved plastic condenses.

[@cramos7287]

Nitro is not a lubricant... is Castor Oil, RC engines are powered by a mix of Methyl-alcohol, Castor oil and sometimes Nitromethane as in this case (5-15%)...

[@Beyond_Slots]

Coolest Video Of Thee Whole Damn Year! :) AMAZING Build! GRATZ ON THE WORK! Great Way To Demo Fluid Dynamic's And Just Wow This Was A Great Video Seriously TY! Sincerely E.

[@AussieRC]

I have made something like that for my weed wacker many years ago

[@A-Milkdromeda-Laniakea-Hominid]

Transparent aluminum. What if I could give ya something that does the same job, but only 1/6th the thickness?

[@ddegn]

Where in the world are you? I'll have a Chronos 1.4 in March and if you lived near southern Idaho we could get together to film some of your projects.

[@williamcharles9480]

Is the clear material plexiglass or is it Lexan? From the purplish tint it appears to be Lexan. It's my belief that the Lexan is the better material for these purposes.

[@ovenheating9482]

[@just_j0e]

I have always wondered where you get you nitro engine those small ones (they look like kyosho engines) i would like to order some my self but cant seem to find any websites

[@TheMoffBoy]

Get the slo mo guys on it

[@gidrax113]

still sounds better than a honda

[@Slipshodkickitt]

yea cause everyone has the money and access to all the machinery needed for this.

[@PapiDoesIt]

Pretty cool.

[@LCMNUNES1962]

FANTÁSTIC ROTATION , BRASIL OK.

[@hydroracer1642]

this is sweet bro....i can send u one of my boat motors to put a glass head button on...i have a novarossi with a seven port sleave in it would be sweet to have the back clear plate one it and a glass head button on the top....i then could take to the race as a display for all the other gear heads to see....lmk I would be more then willing to help u out with whtever

[@keithallen97]

Nice video :D

[@cyrekstraka4460]

good idea

[@tonywright8294]

now fit a turbo charger(just the usual thick youtooob comment ) exelent video

[@garrettautenrieth2375]

Make the same thing but for the head so you can see the piston

[@adamswindells1]

Give it to the slow mo guys to do some super slow speed recordings

[@_multiverse_]

I could honestly care less how you made the part or unscrewed and reinstalled a fucking cover. skip to 3 min to see a blurry farting crankshaft.

[@alfredomarquez9777]

Honestly, if you hated the making of the part, you should be away form model engines and modeling!

[@Migueldeservantes]

Kudos "Very nice video"

[@TheWisdom3]

Insane in the membrane,.

[@reyeshdz3475]

i was subcrited because i wanna see how it work with a high speed camera.

[@bbuildingmarch7060]

try adding a gasket in between

[@thomasrohleder4281]

More acrylic parts, please.

[@shanebyrne6840]

cool now make a car Engine block or sump out of plexiglass then do a video

[@markdam]

do the cylinder head!

[@MichelLinschoten]

Now everybody is doing the same shit...

[@datchaffeec4529]

I hydro locked my nitro engine and seized it... that engine had a hard life

[@abbystewart2711]

Where did the oil come from ? The nitro?

[@amerlimbu]

great
