I just noticed Tower Hobbies has the YS FZ 110 listed on their website for $412.99, due mid June. All of you who were guessing the price were a little low. WOW! I hope it's a lot of engine for that much! I'm glad I just bought my FZ91 at under $300!!!

I would not pay attention to Tower's pricing. They are always overpriced. Central would be a better source. Word is, it would be about $375. Singapore Hobby has it at about $360.

I like cubic inches as much as the next guy, but wow...for a $100 price jump, YS should think seriously about keeping the FZ91 around at it's current $275-ish price point instead of replacing it with the 110.

*clink* *clink* <--- my two cents...

I guess the pattern competition fellows will not balk at the price too much, but it sure would have been nice to keep both in production for the rest of us sport fliers. I'm anxious to see how my new fz91 runs, I sure am glag I was able to get one of the last production run. A soon as any of you get your mits on a new 110, please let us all know how they perform.

Actually, I'm not surprised at the price change. I thought for a long time that the .91 represented the greatest performace for at the lowest cost in the line.

On 30% Coolpower Heli, it turned an APC 15-8 at 10,150. My 120NC turns a 15-10 at 9450. I think this 110 is outdoing my 120 with much less weight.

If you need a little more umph but not more weight (remember, a heavier motor means tail weight may be necessary), then the 110 is a great chioce.
