There was talk of a new .18 from Thunder Tiger recently, perhaps this is what you were thinking of? Haven't heard any new info though.

Darn it Matt - you made me look and now I want one. The new TT .18 and .28 have screw on heads and firewall mounts. They look sort of like enlarged .07s.

Cute.

I wonder if the .18 will be anemic but well mannered like the .07, or will it have some balls.

Ka-ching!

Now you've got me wondering if it's ringed or lapped.

I hope they hit the market faster than the Nautical Commander radio,
which was "TBA" but never did materialize.

What is the "green power" concept? Is this something I need? If this engine is involved in just a run of the mill kind of crash, the carb will snap off and make the rest of the case useless.....which in turn will save fuel and make the engine more environmentally friendly because it will never run again. I think I'm starting to get the concept.......
