Sandy, .46/.52 petrol engines are out, apparently with good performance, I have ordered some, will fix it on the spacewalker ( good test platform, can glide back from anywhere with a  engine cut), let us see how it performs,
If you Are not into meth, with the PIA of getting meth, gas is the way to go.
Honestly, I am addicted to the smell of meth, castor & soot, so I  am hanging on , a die hard meth engine fan.

Honoured ! Divay, how cando coming along?

Augeastine Sir, will you kindly give me the link related to those petrol engines..? actually i am looking for a petrol engine, for the crafts. i tried with chain saw engine, two stroke, but its too heavy, and below in P/W ratio.its a humble request..Sir.

divyakar ... something you found funny ... which I probably did not understand ... could you please elaborate on your post .....

Still up for sale....

Price reduced to 7500 inclusive of shipping - Non negotiable .....

i was actually planning to go for thunder tiger, but i have seen TT engines have overheating issues.. thats why i picked an OS.. In this regard i think ASP is amazing performance engine.. for pretty cheap price.. asp fs70 is Rs.7233 from RCD... why not to buy a new one than to pick up a second hand..  .... 7500 with shipping is not a bad deal .. but 5k is better for a TT (seEcOnd hAnd)...... moreover who knows how many crashes the engine has survived ..  .... haha "NOT NEGOTIABLE" ..thats helps!!...

ASP fs70 is  available at RCDhamaka..

It is so interesting that sometimes, one has to take a bite of its own lesson given to others.... I guess you should think again on the advice of Shadnam. Even he got a OS 71 FS for Rs 4000 some 3-4 months back.  Rotor is selling 71 size OS FS engine for Rs 10,200, never to forget that OS is among highly revered FS engines, after Saito etc.

I would request other not to pull a sleaze on this thread like it happened to the other Radio sale thread. At the end, the seller is free to put forward its expectation. Buys can only decide if the price is reasonable or else look somewhere else. One may not covet the seller to its own price.
 
All the best for the sale!!

True, being civil about is the key, also one needs to see who is it that putting up things for sale, divay has been helping people for free, to get into this hobby, 7500 IMHO is not a bad deal at all.

Not bad / not good also in my opinion. one person is not at liberty to do what ever, for his reputation of past deeds.




I am thank full to asinghatiya once again. for posting a link, for the rotor co lead me to research about engines a bit. and want to agree with you Ujjwaana here, OS indeed is a very famous and proven CO. in rc engine manufacturing.

Thanks Ujjwaana once again for mentioning the old thread, that is hint enough for people with a little brain.

All the best for this sales thread.

Divyakar and Shadman

Now listen up dudes .... I dont what knowledge you have about engines or not ... but I guess you entering into this thred for no rhyme or reason is really not welcome....

As to put some knowledge into your brain here goes....

ASP is nowhere close to what thuder tiger engines have to offer ... the price difference between the two NIB itself is above 100 USD...... so get your facts right .....

Also the engine that I have posted is just 4 flights old so you can consider it new

Shadman... I said no crashes ... I believe you have no right to question my Integrity ....

Divyakar ... I have probably sold more items on this forum than you have purchased in your entire stint with the hobby and have never received a single complaint... so stop showing of your knowledge cause it seems like you are just reading and putting theoretical stuff on the forum .... boss get your hands acquainted with a remote prior to putting your cut copy past knowledge on the forum

I think you have no idea of my stint in this hobby, personally or professionally.(let's not discuss that here)

Remaining things about you are quite clear by the text written by you.

As I said earlier all the best for your sale.

All the best to you too Divyakar

Anagram of Divyakar is Divay Kar, there is a divay in every Divyakar, sounds like Shankrachrya's " Aham Brahmasmi" ,

hey divay .. i just wrote what i felt about the engine... i can't let u rob ppl on the forum by ur stuffed prices u see!! the price shud be 5-6 k.. (probably u can quote 6k -negotiable .. sounds good)  coz.. its a used stuff.. i know u have sold a alot stuff here earlier.. at what ever price u felt was right.. (some of them were definitely reasonable).  

Since its a used product it shud not be sold at that high price... comon u can see the all pumped prices in others sale n  then u criticize it to the limit.. .. what about ur own sale boss.. u are no different.. no one does charity here.. So before mocking others sale.. Please MEND yours.. !! 

And about crashing the engine.. if u remember u had doubted my receiver of under going a crash... (which is kept inside the airframe )... on the other hand ,engine is the most prone area of crash hit/bad landing thrashes.. give me one reason why i should not doubt the engine has taken beatings... any buyer would..  
More over thunder tigers spares are easily available in India.. .. incase the buyer needs to replace any part of ur engine.... lol!! I think I have all the right to intervene in ur thread..

best of luck with the sale!!

  

  

Mr. Shadman.... you are funny ... i have nothing more to say .... best of luck

I bet this thread has already got enough bumps!!!  Consider it sold 

now dat was funny

I have been getting PMs from multiple people about these "For Sale" threads becoming "fish-markets", and people seemingly becoming gangs to extract revenge and settle old scores on others.  I am sorry to see that the forum that I am proud of as an achievement for 2 years of fairly hard work (not much money though) coming to this. 

Is this what RC is about ? I tell everyone who ask me why do you go the field, or why do you spend so much time on these things (most of the time, what I work on is not even my stuff), the first thing I answer is that I like the people I interact with on the field and off the field. It seems like man is no longer a "social" animal.

Take this thread for example.  Someone has a 75 4stroke engine from one manufacturer.  He stated the condition, posted pictures, and quoted an asking price.  If others have anything to say, it should be about another 75 4stroke engine from the same  manufacturer available locally at a better value.  I can even understand if someone posted details about a better brand (better as in widely accepted, a market leader) being available for similar prices or slightly higher value (making it a better "value" deal).

Instead, people have gone on all tangents.  This thread is NOT about which is the best engine, or which engine is value for money.  This thread is not about other sizes of engines available.  If anyone who has genuine interest in thread has questions about whether this is a good deal, let him ask.  But don't do "driving by shooting" type of comments on sales threads.

I am not taking sides with the seller in this thread, this applies to one and all (myself included), I hope anyone who knows me understands that much.  For the sanity and sanctity of the forum, I am going to delete comments from sales threads that I ("Idi Amin") feel that are neither 1) helpful in correcting factual errors in the sale post nor 2) helpful in pointing out CURRENT MARKET prices of the SAME (or very VERY similar) item. I request the moderators to assist me with this task.

So do we just delete the unwanted parts?

Anwar, I really feel bad about this forum and turn it has taken up in last few days.


bump bump bump

Nope, please let me know which ones cry out for being out of context.  I will take the blame for deleting them.

We have had heated arguments on the forum, and I have heard this "too much sale on the forum" angle many times before. Commercial activity will always be higher, since many/most of the core technical aspects have already been discussed.  Same is the case on many other established RC forums. 

The issue currently is people settling scores, and jumping into threads without following guidelines.  The guidelines are very clear for classifieds... if you have an alternative proposal, it has to be on the same item (or very very similar) and offer better value to the purchaser.  Otherwise I am going to delete responses, especially if the seller points them out.  We want the seller to get a decent/current market price, which should by default be reasonable to buyers also.  The idea should not be to discuss every alternative available in this world.  If that is the intention, open a separate thread on it, please don't do it on classifieds threads.

If everyone stopped and thought for a moment about what their post is going to really reflect before opening their mouths, I think everything will be fine.  It easy to say the forum is not working well, without realizing how each one of us have contributed to the said issue. I wish everyone spent a minute thinking what positive have they contributed to the forum recently, and things will fall in perspective.

Finally, I do feel this is just a short lived matter, and I expect this forum to be a place where people, especially beginners can get help.  End of the day, that is all what matters.

I don't think any thing is out of context here. not at all.

I compare different brands and their advantages and disadvantages while buying any thing that's not out of context

Pictures were posted after four days after declaration of sale.

Link of web site was provided which sells same engine on a competitive price, what's matter of disagreement on that?

If we can't discuss advantages and disadvantages of engine in comparison of other engine, on a sale thread, than I don't have to say any further, every thing is quite clear.

Divay Sir,

Nice thread u got here. Just wait till tomorrow or day after when i put up my used 7c and 6ex for sale. I am expecting some entertainment there. 

May be I missed it in this thread, please enlighten me... which reply # has it ?


This is where brains have to be used.  Is the seller trying to sell the item at such a high price, that a buyer would be able to get a  better brand at similar prices ?  Then PROBABLY yes.  Otherwise, this sale thread is for the item being discussed, and not a general discussion about similar items.

Anyone is welcome to discuss engines in general on separate threads.  I find it funny that ASP engines have even earned the nick name "Another Serious Problem" over time, and my own experience with them have been less than stellar.  Should I open my big mouth in this thread about the sale of a TT engine ?  Now I would not prevent anyone from saying an OS engine of similar specs is available for only Rs1000 higher... that is a valid alternative, and a better value.

I say this again, if people post anything they find on Google just because "an engine is being discussed", then Idi Amin will find the "delete" button quite useful

lol ..... best of luck my friend ...

Yes I have seen post no 18.

And Asp can be what you have called it, but not in my opinion, I have seen ASP used by senior flyers here in Bangalore.

And All the good luck for your engine sale too.

http://rotor.co.in/show-detail.asp?prodid={C0A41831-75BA-4AAB-A145-DDC80EE16C50}&pn=1

That is a link to a 91 engine, at Rs.11950.  Where is the similarity (size,price) with what is on sale here ? What am I missing ?

Also, Anwar, I would like to point out something..... I may say that I have a 0s.46ax for sale for Rs. 3000 but what is the point If I do not have the product available that does not mean that the people who are selling the same for Rs. 6300 - Rs. 7000 are in anyway incorrect, I am sure Rotor would have had the product and sold the same for the above mentioned price, but the truth is that it is currently not availble for the same price....

Akshayb ... I see no point in your post and thank you for the luck ... I guess I need it .. not for the sale.... but for dealing with some people on this forum....

Divay... please... a bit of silence now can do this thread a lot of good.

It seems people do not even consider the basic fact that a .91 engine would likely be oversized for a plane that can take a .75.  And this is what I find perplexing. Plus, buyers have to spend 4 to 5 thousand more (too late in the night to do math... and I don't know if Rotor prices include tax etc) ! Unless there is clear indication that the price quoted by the seller is obscene which may trick newcomers, why make these kind of logic-defying suggestions ? 

 

yes Anwar bhai there are lots of things which are logic defying on this thread, other wise sale might have completed by now.

As ujjwaana has said this thread is bumped so many times, sale should be considered completed.

So there is no point in discussing closed down thread.


There's some calculation on page one of this thread in case you want to revise your maths.

Akshay ,.... grow up bro an Item which sells for approx. 10000 Rs. ( no customs, shipping added)on an international hobby shop, is bieng sold for Rs. 7500 ( only 4 FLIGHTS OLD) I have no clue how you do your item depreciation..... but they way you do the same.... if you any time want to sell your 4 day old car ... contact me I'll take it I am sure you will sell it for no more than 20% of its actual value....

hey divay .. i m being totally honest with u here... thats why i wanna ask u this
why are u selling this  awesome engine bhai..
--- its out of stock in most of the LHS
----Its merely 4 flights old
----its awesome.. its thunder tiger
--- then u get so desperate that u bring down the price from 9k to 7.5k

it doesnt seem right..

anyways please see this..
http://www.infinity-hobby.com/main/product_info.php?cPath=94_133&products_id=3474&osCsid=c955347a2d3b28a38410a5598b5d7cbe

its the same engine for 168$.. and u can add all the shipping and customs.. and bring it up to 200$.. dats 9k (to cross check http://in.advfn.com/p.php?pid=fxcalculate&clc_from=USD&clc_to=INR&clc_amount=200 )

... u are selling a used engine for 83% of the cost..
u cud do that if u are selling it personally to someone.. but on a public forum the rates depreciates exponentially sir.. its just like any other 2nd stuff.. coz no matter what u say.. that feeling of doubt is always there.. (its second hand , used once by someone else)
i had picked up OS 70fs for 4 k .. only 10 tanks done .. i think ujjuwana was there too..
i know u cant get it close to that deal.. but still  7.5 still pricks ... for a engine dat can be brought at 9k.. or shud the buyer suffer coz u had picked up the engine expensive... therefore u wanna sell it expensive..


n lemme enlighten u there are sincere buyers who are waiting for your  price to go down..
best of luck

Divay
I'll take the engine, seriously, for (a) to put an end to this nonsense (b) I Need the engine for my profile yak, PMed u the details

Divay - I request no further comments from your side.  Let people who have genuine interest in buying decide whether they want to try ordering from outside India and see if all this guesswork on shipping and customs costs will work out, or go with this sale as stated. Why do I suggest silence ? Because I see no end to this. 

I am surprised no one checked and posted links to the same item on sale on the big 3 US forums (RCU, RCG and RR) for even better fire sale prices, just to "prove" your prices are high !

Do not forget this is the same poster who have preached a lot on  Shadman's radio thread, for so called cause of "helping fellow RCers who just jump seeing something fancy." So same people are repeating same thing what you call it non sense. ok it is non sense if it is done by some body else.


If a radio fitted inside a fuselage of plane can crash why not a engine out side it.

, written on one reply, than why quotes of "US forums" here.

When cheap prices of radio else where, have no relevance in India  then why compare prices for a engine with prices on US forums,  I suppose most of the sellers on US forums RCG etc. do not ship to India. I am also surprised.

[Admin Note] Added "quote" tags.

Akshay bhai - Please reread this thread on how many times you have misunderstood things here, including about reply #18.

And you are missing the point again about US forums. The point is that posting links of items outside India does not make much sense in these type of local sales threads, which is what I stated earlier in the radio thread, yet Shadman HAD to dig up a price from outside India.  That is why I was being satirical about "why not post even lower prices from the US forums".  Anyways, these seemingly straight forward things seem outside the grasp of some.

For the record, I do believe Divay's comment about the receiver being possibly damaged was out of context, but at least he tried to point out another price within India.

BTW, let me know when you ALL are done exacting revenge. No hurry though... the weekend must provide ample free time to engage in this most fun / productive activity.

First of all this is not  a "settling of scores" or "revenge" kind of thing I just want to say how standards change here, one stick me and one stick for others.

1. Photos are not asked on this thread when a particular member asks for that on each and every sale thread.

2. Radio was very badly mishandled and engine is just 4 flight old ok.

No misquote , poster him self have quoted prices of a US hobby shop. even the prices calculation was so much misleading which was corrected by other poster.

 

1. My earlier posts are deleted where i replied about why i dont have any interest in glow engines or planes. I despise them as much as i love electric. Why its so difficult for u to understand?

2. Try dropping a radio and an engine together from some height( 10 ft. would do) and see which survives better.

LMAO! Do you 'Land' your Radio while you land your plane!! We strap it with our neck Chief!!
And see!! I am not calling you 'Nuts' for this!! Chill down man... meetup in the field tomorrow and have a good 'Group Therapy' together

All I can say is Wow,!!!!! Look at the items compared for so called as DROPPING test, What a brilliant thought this makes you a real Genius. 

Akshayb, yogesh, shadman, VC my sincere apologies for all that has happened in this thread....

Anwar ... I am pulling out ... I take your point ... 

Yogesh thank you for your offer for Rs. 7000 via PM but I would not be able to give the engine for that price.... once again thank you for showing interest ......

Crazy .... let it go bro......chill ..... 

Augustine sir .... can't sell the engine to you, If you really need it just message me .... it would be a gift from my side ... 

yes he is a real genius, he studied at institutes where very small no of people get admitted of desirable candidates, probably few hundreds out of lakhs

That's true cuz IITK is the best in India, but i dont consider myself a genius.

You might be referring to 'My' times ratings...That is long time ago  BTW look at the ranking of IIT for the past 10 for years... IITB and IITD have beaten KGP and K in ranking for long time now. And please don't be an part of this external worlds ranking of IIT esp if you have been part of it. an IITian should know that Insti's Dept are ranked not the institutes themselves...

I bet you did not have that Group Therapy yet.

Divay pmed u the details send the engine for 7500, ( unless you want Santanu to kill me)

Post # 68 "Akshayb, yogesh, shadman, VC my sincere apologies for all that has happened in this thread.... "

Why me? What did I do???
