| I look at this this way. . .. For many years, General Aviation tried to "soup up" their engines bringing another 20+HP to a regular engine. . .and that did just one thing. . ..MOH decreased cramatically every time. Now, You take a look at a standard 55 HP engine. . .(like a Rotex) They have been tried and trued for many many years. They are heavy, yeah. . .But don't you think they tried to make them stronger and lighter? Now you take a look at this engine here. . .It weights 55 POUNDS and produces 80 HP. That is a extremely LIGHT engine with BIG HP. Just my personal worthless 2 cents. . . I would NOT spend ANY money on such an engine, until it has been out for quite some time. 1. I seriously doubt if it will hold up very well. 2. Chances are, it may be a rough running engine. . .maybe not. . .I don't know, but 80 hp in such a light case is something else! 3. If you want to chance the "Bugs" that it will have, then go buy it. But there is a reason why I don't jump on the band wagon, just because it is the latest and greatest. Especially when it comes to that engine being responsible for keeping me up in the air. . . Just my worthless 2 cents. . . Great to hear from ya! --- On Tue, 3/12/13, grarob123 <grarobwil@bigpond.com> wrote:
