I have 5 MDS engines , a 1.48,2-68's,2-48's and have had a great time with them all. The 1.48
was the hardest to get set correctly at first, but once you get it the power is great. My brother was getting
into R/C and purchased a Sig LT 40, I of course told him to put a MDS 48 in the nose. After running the motor
a little we took to the skies, great power - but it would occasionally die in flight. I set the motor the same as
I did all my others to no avail. Finally I realized the only difference was the fuel we were using. He had purchased
a good brand but only at 10% nitro. I mixed it a little and brought it up to about 17%. That's all it took, as long as he has good nitro content it run's superb,no more dead sticks. I hear people bad mouth 1 brand or another
and have seen how they are so happy to adjust, adjust,adjust. Motors are basically the same and once they
have been set I only occasionally have to change it a click, due to temp,humidity,changes. Use a chicken stick
to start them. Fly and have a blast!!!!! I put 1 of the 68's on a Kadet Senior and love to watch peoples mouths
drop as I pull vertical with the big bird. Great power from all of them. I wish you great flying
