Check out the club website at KOTRC.org for some photos from the meet. Especially look for Antone Kephart's 1/2A Magician (FM plan available!) and Stan Tyler's baby Twin Flite Streak. Both of them are replicas of classic models, powered by Tee Dee .049s. Antone won, I came in 2nd with an old Skyfire mk 2, and Stan borrowed the Magician to come in 3rd (even 5 appearance points can help =) )
Actuall, all three winners were flying Tee Dee .049s. The .061s are impressive, and eventually will have an advantage, but the smaller ones fly well enough that it is the pilot that makes the difference!
Stan has a problem with the outboard engine on his twin. He recently popped it onto another, single engine model to check it out, and still has a problem. At least it isn't something inherant in the twin configuration.
