Hi Dar, you collecting engines now?

back in the day I never really felt one way or the other for the FSR line, they were on maybe 80% of the planes where i grew up and they just worked. kinda like the subaru of model engines. lots have passed through my hands but none stayed with me. a couple of friends and i had a ringed .40 that was our wh0re engine, whoever needed it just dug it out of the crash bin and flew it till it crashed again. never cleaned it, never cared what fuel it was fed and it never let any of us down. nowadays when i see an FSR it brings back fond memories.
Dave,


I do remember them being reliable, while most other engines were less so.

Powerful? My HB .40PDP ran rings around it...
