Best thing is to ask Mike Sullivan who was the exclusive tester for them
in his 3/4 scale spitfire, when i ran into him at LAX he had rolled up
his third (and last) plane with the engine and was adamant he wouldn't
recommend then to anyone, period.

Do a search and ask him, they nearly cost him his life........ Michael

Eight cylinders may have some advantages over 4. The smaller cylinders
likely will have better combustion and if you lose one the engine may
still deliver useful power without running too rough. Guess how they
know.

Mike Borgelt



also gives u a smoother running engine
