Dave,

I have a YS 1.20AC (I think) with a Hatori pipe in my 2m plane.  If I were
to upgrade to a new motor I would strongly consider 2-stroke for the price
factor alone.  I think the YS 1.60 looks like a tremendous motor, but it is
a lot of money in upfront cost as well as fuel.

What would you recommend?  The plane weighs 10#4oz now.  Should I look at
the OS, Mintor, or Webra?

Just curious,

Brett
