YS only builds glow engines, so that rules out large IMAC planes.  YS's 
advantage over all other engines is in throttle control, and pattern and 
IMAC guys are the only ones who care about throttle control.  They are 
higher priced, somewhat higher maintenance, heavier, and have less power 
(exceptions being the 140DZ and 63), so you have to really care about 
throttle control to run them.

 From my perspective, at least.
