Flyingboxcar do you any big glow engines (20cc Plus) and do they require any special fueling set etc.

No I do not have many large glow engines except for the Moki 210 (approx 34 cc) and Laser 150 already shown. The Moki is reputed to run well on straight 80:20 fuel and a larger bore fuel tube is recommended. Same for the Laser on fuel mix. These days with advent of good gasoline engines running a large glow is no longer attractive in terms of reliability and fuel consumption 
There is no ST in my stash.

Go for it, if Italian made, I hear the quality went down hill once the production was moved to China by the US owners

Also do some research on running etc, if the ST likes good amount of Nitro you will end up with higher fuel costs. I would rather suggest that you pick up a good deal on DLE 30/35 if you want hassle free and cheap running

Time to update. This time arguably one of the best ever produced by OS, the OS 108. This example is BNIB, there are two more in the collection, one was bought used and the other has been abused in my possession and currently loaned to a friend for use.
Enjoy the pictures
These are just the packing/boxes two boxes actually, one for the engine and the other for the muffler

The box opened to reveal the packaging, the sheaf of literature accompanying the engine and engine mounting template, and the nice cushioning around the box to protect the engine

 A quick tour around the engine. You would notice the holes in the prop driver. These are threaded to take 3mm studding through the props to ensure that the prop does not slip

The exhaust port showing the arrangement for muffler adapter, and the new shiny piston. The package that contains the needle, woodruff key, 4x3mm studding, and ball link for throttle, and the muffler and adapter. That muffler is good size, I think it could easily hold half a can of beer  Giggle

Only the Goldberg Anniversary Cub that i bought on my last day in England (1996!) still awaiting build!
Needs a 60 FS twin, not 120, or even a 60 FS Single...
Correction. Does not need, as i have a new OS 46AX. DESIRES is the correct word.
Was on Facetime with ashok baijal last half hour. Both pissed off at sour grapes members!
Stopping here else this fine thread will get diverted.

I have a Goldberg Cub that was built almost 18 years back and is still flying condition, with a 60 FP that has been powering it is way overpowered. Had one major mishap in 97 or 98 (can't remember exactly) and then was repaired and restored to flying.

No that was Gusty. That engine was . failure from NGH line. In fact a Norvel 40 gas engine runs much better than that 9cc. Have seen first hand both being run or attempt at running (as the case may be)

To whet appetites and also for those who are still interested in wet fuel engines, here is some reading material written by Peter Chinn about the OS Gemini I
 http://sceptreflight.net/
You would need to navigate to the OS FT 120 page
