Sorry, John,
Matt's not the only one working on a gas pattern plane. I've been working on one for a year now. OS160 converted to gas with a ProSpark ignition. I just about have the kinks worked out of the system. The Syssa looks pretty heavy to me, that's why I abandoned trying the ZDZ40 and went with the OS160.

That's one of the nice things about living in New Jersey: you don't have to go far to fly with Pattern Legends! Living in Connecticut is another story. I don't want to tell you what happened at my field this weekend... LOL
Jeez Matt, you gave away your secret weapon plans. Now everyone will be building a gas Pattern plane for next season! VBG

Getting my Enigma original design outfitted with the new Syssa 180 gasoline engine. The soft mount build has just been completed and retrofitting on the firewall just done. It just needs servos and it will fly next weekend weather permitting
On Ed Alt's suggestion, we went to fly with legendary pattern competitor, Jim Martin. I first saw him fly 40 years ago, flying his Banshee design in a manner I had never seen before. Extremely fast, right on the deck, with extreme precision. He was twice my age back then and being a rank beginner and shy, it never occured to me to approach him just to talk. Well, 40 years later, I got the chance. What a nice man... one very interesting thing to me being of Armenian decent, he told me that he also is of Armenian decent. That's pretty cool to me
He explained that he has a new version of his famed Banshee in a more current, much better done fiberglass/foam configuration that he intends to electrify. That should be cool.
