Hi John, i used to have a reed engine made by Trevor Simpson, this would have been about 15 years ago but now it seems the piston port engines are the bee,s nee,s. the Zenoah moded 29.5 cc engines are really getting some fantastic rpms these days especially the new CC Racing Zenoahs which are super hot and records proove this. maybe the reed engines can,t match the high end piston port engines in r/c boats these days.
