Hi guys, Thank you for all the comments, I was busy the last few days :( Huh, so I really didn't think that flame eaters would be very critic to build, but now I'm going to take a step away from them - for now. Which air powered engines would you recommend? I'm definitely taking them into...

Good evening, I already thought about starting with an easier build, but I'm - frankly said - just not interested in steam/air engines. I might go with a flame-eater first, it seems to be a challenging build, but not as critical as an IC-engine. by the way: it's just amazing how slow your...
