RE: Valley View RC Brand Engines
Nice Corsair. I love the tri-color Navy paint scheme. The XYZ 20 is a very impressive engine. There are a handfull of the 20's flying at our field, mostly in the hands of first-time gasser owners. They all love them. Flip and fly. I couldn't think of a better way to introduce a newbee to gas. Valley View was so impressed that they acquired sole rights to these engines. VVRC even went so far as to test-run EVERY engine prior to shipping. I don't know how long that policy will continue, but they have always been willing to test-run an engine and do a basic needle-adjustment prior to shipping, on request. I don't know what they charged for this service, but for a noob, it would sure be worth it. This size makes a great starting-point for getting into gas. The engines are quite inexpensive, as are the airplanes and appropriate servos. And you can fly all weekend on less than a gallon of pre-mix.
