I have 2 I bought, used R/C versions, cheap. I think the R/C guys never broke them in. Swapped the carb for a 7mm venture and an Enya NVA. After a couple short runs, I ran a full 10 oz tank of GMA 10/29 then another tank of GMA 10/22. I flew one on a Brodak P-40 on an APC 11.4 X 4 and 62' lines. Lots of line tension and lap times weren't too bad. If I hadn't destroyed it in crash #4 this year, I'd probably switch to an 11 X 4 prop and 63' lines. Great engines.
