Default Which engine for a cermark f-20?!?!?!?!

hello well my problem is that i bought this f-20 with an enya 60 heli engine which makes it go around 110-120 with a 11/6 turnin about 17000rpm so im trying to make it go faster!! so my friends tell me to go with a tower 75 but ive been told that if i want speed i need rpm so another option could be a 70 heli or a 91 heli and if i could find one a ducted fan engine.
which is a better choice?? i think the 91 heli could be the one

thanks in advance

I did a search on the tower engines a while back when looking to buy. I heard they have problems leaking and who you go to shut it down with closing carb they kee running. I never owned one but heard many people mention this on this forum.

With the 91 you could use a nice meaty prop for speed. Think that would be ticket

Default Cermark F-20....

I have one, and two of my Buds do also. I run the T.H.
.75, one of the guys uses a magnum .75, and the other
a Jett .90. The Jett is the fastest. If you want to go
faster....you'll have to use the Jett, a Rossi .91 (piped),
or an O.S. .91 DF (piped).

Mine had flutter issues when I really got it cranking, but
I got it sorted out. The other two planes did not.

The Tower .75 carb needs to be twisted, and firmly
seated on the o-ring before it is cinched down, and It
will work fine. It as a high quality carb.

Dave.

The Rossi .91 lends itself to a side mount, low pipe
configuration....and has in-flight mixture control...
It is a real BRUTE !!!
