This makes numer 7 for me and it never gets old. (2) models these come in and both just as cool as the other. Lots of accessories you can run on these little jokers. Get both model's you will be glad you did.
Enjoy your Steam!
Thanks so much for your continued support! We’re delighted this is your seventh model and that you’re enjoying all the accessories. Your enthusiasm for both versions means a lot—enjoy your steam!
Great base box and fuel tank looks very good on my hit. Miss model engine worked really good well built.
Thanks so much for the great review! We’re delighted the base and fuel tank look good on your hit-and-miss engine and are working well. We really appreciate your support!
A beautifully constructed and finished model; it looks particularly striking with this boiler, and even better when in operation. At first, the steam output seemed insufficient, but with a bit of experience, it proves to be just right: a single fill of water and alcohol — running at a moderate speed with occasional revving ups — allows for 15–20 minutes of operation.
Unfortunately, the instruction manual does not specify what type of steam cylinder oil is required. I used Milbury Live Steam Oil, which seems to work fine. Lubricating the moving parts is a real challenge.
The steam engine arrived with a few loose screws and a slightly misaligned reversing lever. During operation, the reversing lever tends to snap into one of its extreme positions; it does not stay in intermediate settings.
Overall, the RW-BV2C offers offers excellent value for money.
Thanks for sharing such a thoughtful review. We’re delighted you’re enjoying the model’s construction and performance, and appreciate your notes about the oil guidance, lubrication, loose screws, and reversing lever. We’ll pass this feedback along to our team to help improve the product and instructions. Happy steaming!
out of the box it ran 9k, but there was some resistance. Tweaked the tension on the legs holding the crankshaft, light but not loose, and twisted a pencil pint over every bearing surface. Runs really well now. A great teaching tool.
Thanks for sharing your tuning tips! We’re glad the engine is running so well now and that you’re enjoying it as a teaching tool. We appreciate your thoughtful review.
Op 17 oktober kwam de kit bij me binnen en de dagen er na ben ik deze opgebouw met als tegenvaller dat er geen compressie was.Dat is door mij uitgezocht en toen bleek dat er lekkage was bij de kleppen die niet goed sloten.Het is opgelost door met een boortje van 2,5 milimeter deze te doorboren daar er een braam in de klepgeleider zat.Daarna was er een goede compressie want deze sloten toen wel.De tweede tegenvaller is dat er bij het pakket een verkeerde CDI unit geleverd was daar die voor kleine motoren van 3,5 cc is met een 1,5 volt batterij in plaats van de afgebeelde 6-12 volt versie.Dus het testen heb ik nog niet kunnen doen daar er bij sterlingkit de originele van (€23,30) besteld is die eerdaags binnenkomt.
