The Tower Hobbies .75 is by far my favorite engine. It runs the same ''AWESOME'' every time I go flying and the parts if for instance you give it a dirt nap are very reasonably priced. I have well over 12 gallons through one of them, and it is like new.

Yea, I have heard good things about these engines and with Tower's discounts you can pick one up for about $85. Hard to beat!

Do I still have what? I Still have Brat 25 and Brat 28 engines and just ordered an Aviastar 46 from Sig. I'm watching for a Megatech 46 and always on the lookout for Mecoa 25 and 46. THOSE Mecoas are very very good engines. They always start with just a twist of the spinner, make great power, tune easy and just run.

No, No, that's a good thing. Better metalargy than the ones being copied.
