YS Longevity and Fuel $$$ Part 2

[ray ayestaran]

Every few months now a new line of small to midsize gas engines come available somewhere in the world, it wont be long and I can get back into pattern my first love.  just the other day I tested a roto brand engine with lower compression and new wide band ignition has very little shake and was surprisingly easy to start and quiet - on paper it should make the weight no problem. 80% of all problems/complaints and arguments on this list seem to pertain to engines - sit back and relax help is on the way.

  Lets summarize a little:
  Two strokes & four strokes both work but most of us would prefer electric were it not so costly.
  Most of us think FAI is tougher all around than AMA Masters... no surprise here...
  The guys who win the most are more likely to be sponsored... no surprise here ...
  A power plant that does not meet an individuals expectations can quickly become an emotional issue.
  The guys at the top seem to be able to do well with whatever equipment they get their hands on.

  in conclusion, It will take more than a new Brio with a DZ/Hacker/two stroke-of -the-day to make me a contender! Fortunately, it will not keep me from enjoying the game.

    Mike, I do not want to get into a 4c vs 2c discussion, since whatever works for each flier is what they should, and most do, use and fly. I doubt any top flier would use something as a sponsorship, that would not give him the the best chance of winning.
