Spring Specification and Fit

The O.S. Engine OS45582521 spring is supplied as an FSa-110 70N replacement for regulator assemblies on RC engines. It establishes a 70N preload that the regulator linkage must overcome to alter throttle position and control engine speed.

Mechanically the spring provides a static counterforce to the regulator arm; that counterforce sets the starting tension the governor works against, so altering spring rating changes the regulator's sensitivity and response time under load.

Fitting advice: install the OS45582521 into the designated FSa-110 spring cup so it seats centrally and the spring axis aligns with the regulator arm and linkage. After refit, perform stepwise bench trials or secure the model and observe idle and governor engagement before running freely. Check that pins and catches move without obstruction.

Tuning notes: this 70N unit is useful when you want a firmer baseline tension. If you notice a raised idle or delayed governor engagement after fitting, inspect seating and linkage geometry first, then consider a different spring rating only after measured testing.

Place the OS45582521 centrally in the spring cup, ensure it is not tilted, and align it with the regulator arm. Proper seating prevents binding and ensures predictable governor action.
Always run initial checks with the model restrained or on the bench. Confirm smooth linkage movement, clean surroundings, and correct seat of the spring to avoid sudden throttle changes during first start up.
If after careful seating and testing the governor shows undesired idle or slow engagement, step to a lighter or heavier rating only after observing the 70N behaviour. Change ratings incrementally to track effects.
