[NSRCA-discussion] OS 2.00 FS-FI

Mon Jul 2 05:40:01 AKDT 2007

Tommy that is good to hear.  Like Chris says a lot of people have the
money, and although I don't have that kind of hobby money to spend, I DO
like to hear the specs, performance, reliability issues.  

Has anyone tried the non-efi version in a 2m bird....?  Didn't Tower
have the non-efi for around 489 a few weeks ago?

Chris White

	You mean I wasted all that $$ on the newest chrome plated

	All that on my brandy-new custom built plane (when it finally
arrives!)
	won't improve my scores????? 

	You mean I should spend the time practicing? 
	With other Pattern guys or trusted coaches??? 
	-- And listen to them when they tell me all the stuff I didn't
get right? 

	AND THEN PRACTICE SOME MORE?????!?!?!?

	Rats - I wonder if I can pull all that fancy stuff off the plane
and go
	trade it for some cases of practice fuel....

	Great post! Thanks! 
	See you in Muncie!

	Matt, I think you are right. I can't imagine this getting too
many takers.

	(Next is general rant and not aimed at all toward you Matt)
	My bigger issue is why do some people on this list just bash
stuff
	because it is expensive? If you think it is too much just don't
buy
	one. We ALL know that spending money will not make you a better
flyer
	by itself. But some people might like to buy the best stuff
because
	this is a HOBBY and they like playing with nice toys. Let it go
guys.
	Tiger Woods does not cringe in fear because a regular guy buys
the
	newest $1000 driver, nor will the OS 200 make an average flyer
great.
	Money is not a requirement for success. Practice and practice
and
	practice is the key. Please let the snide comments about the
cost of
	stuff go. If it is too much for you to spend on a toy motor,
don't buy
	one. I won't spend that much, but someone else will be happy to
and I
	say that's great because this is a HOBBY and he/she is doing
what makes
	them happy. An $1800 motor will not put the average guy in the
winners
	circle nor will it ever be a requirement to compete on a high
level. We
	all know that.
