Status: offline 		I have flown the 2 strokes and now I choose the YS 140DZ....It has the same power on the top end as the 2 strokes and has better power throughout the entire throttle band.


If you are looking for a light choice the Webra is great and performs every bit as well as the OS 140RX...with a weight savings and not only that the Webra Parts are available....

This can't always be said for the OS stuff....The OS EFI is fancy and has some bells on it but it really doesn't do much for you. I know I ran it for over a year. Its heavier because of the module and the injector mechanisms are a little delicate. Many of the top flyers have switched from this motor for this and other reasons.

Not only that but the Revolution Pro was designed around the Webra 145AAR...These motor are very popular in Europe and Germany. This is the origin of the Revo Pro...I think you would be better going with the Webra in that plane if you choose the 2 stroke.

If you are looking for the absolute performance...the Dingo (DZ) is the best motor out for the Pattern application. It shakes a little more than the 2 strokes...but has a better power band...On a Hyde mount which the revo pro can be converted too the DZ is the best out there.

Status: offline 		If your good with engines or at least you have some idea with what you are doing get the Dingo. remember 20-30% nitro.

If your the sort of person who always seems to have engine problems buy the RX (std) or the Webra. 10-20% nitro
