Lots of options. Stock or modified? Being in Florida you've got a lot of ways to go. You've got RCMK there at Gizmo motors or the new Warehouse Hobbies engine as a couple of suggestions for good stock engines.

CY/Sikk's aren't much of a value anymore. For the price there are much better. It's not that I'm totally against them but after owning 2 of them, I'll stay with my RCMK's.

No duh. Maybe that's why I typed CY/Sikk in a previous posting in here.
