screws on the backplate of the 15 L.A.

Post by rcproflyer »

Has anyone figured out how to get the screws on the backplate from backing off? We put threadlock high temp silicone and lock washers on all of our engines and they still backoff. I heard a rumor last season that there is a metal backplate available, if so could you point me in the right direction?

Thanks

I think this is what you're looking for:

They are reported to drop the engine 200-300 rpm if I'm not mistaken, but if you are at 17,500, then it likely won't matter much.
