ODDS & ENDS
From time to time we run across items that may be useful to our customers but we do not have unlimited supply and do not intend to make it a part of our regular product line. We may even offer used timers or prototypes of timers we never put into production. Each item offered will be described and a photo provided. The text will explain what it is.
LOOKING FOR NEEDLE VALVES?
WE HAVE MOVED THIS TO THE "ACCESSORIES" SECTION OF THE MAIN MENU.
BARGAIN DEAL ON PLASTIC MECHANISMS
We are offering a close out deal on the plastic clock mechanism used
in our MICRO I timer. These are old and not as robust as the newer stock. The
dimensions and specs are the same as the newer ones we sell.
See Here. If you want to
experiment with making your own light weight timers, these are perfect for you.
Only $5.00 for ten of them until they are gone. Only took
a few days to sell them all. Wow!
OOPS RADIAL MOUNT FOR AME/NORVEL ENGINE
The machinist goofed a bit on this one and made the flange underspec.
The nominal thickness of the mounting flange is supposed to be about .050
inches. Well, this one is more like .027 inches. Yes, that does make it a bit
lighter for those looking to shave weight, but it is not going to be as strong
in the event of crash, either. If made to spec, it would sell for $9.50. You can
have this one for only $5.00. Only one so if you want it, better take it now. If
you want to see what a normal mount looks like go

SORRY SOLD
REBUILT TEXAS 3F-I TIMER
This is an early field failure timer that has been rebuilt to be like
new. The timer sells for $70.00 new. So, you can save $20.00 and still have a
timer just as good as new. See it Here. Only
have this one timer.
Own a piece of history
This is my personal prototype of what was to become the Texas MAX timer. I built this just the way I wanted for CAT III flying. I used a Texas DT timer as the base for the prototype. I flew for one season with this timer on a TD .049 powered 1/2A AMA class plane. I did well in competition with it that year. This jewel weighs only 16.1 grams, so it is quite a bit lighter than my production timer. A real two function timer. Click Here to see some photos. This is the exact timer I used. All I have done is take it out of the plane and clean it up. It runs great. I will even include the RPO I used with it. That is $8.50 for free. SOLD
Repaired Texas Ultimate OT Ignition Timer
This is a repaired ignition timer. You will note that it has a Deans connector installed on the wires. If you want the connector as shown, we will ship it as is. Otherwise, I can replace this with our standard wires having no connector. Just let me now which you want when ordering. Runs great. Standard shipping cost applies. This is a chance to get one of our most popular timers at a bargain cost. Click Here to see a picture. Sorry , Sold.
Repaired Texas MAX IIIA Timer
We repaired a nearly new MAX IIIA timer due to a faceplate failure. It had very little use and looks like new. The faceplate is brand new. We will warrant that this timer is good and you can expect it to perform fine. Standard shipping cost applies. This is a chance to get one of our most popular timers at a bargain cost. (only one available) Sorry, Sold
Repaired Texas 3F-1 Timer
We repaired a nearly new 3F-I timer that was not running smoothly. It had very little use and looks like new. We will warrant that this timer is good and you can expect it to perform fine. Standard shipping cost applies. This is a chance to get one of our most popular timers at a bargain cost. SOLD
Repaired Texas MICRO timer
We see a few timer failures due to the clock giving out. These may have a new clock installed, or may be of an earlier design. The faceplates usually have small marks where mounting screws were located, but the timers are all fully functional. They are all packed up in boxes and ready for use. They are as good as a brand new one. Standard shipping cost applies. A photo of a typical unit can be seen by clicking Here. Note, they may all look a little different. The one unit for sale now is a nearly new failure that has a new mousetrap installed. Good as new. Fully new warranty. (SOLD)
