You know, having been in this hobby for only two years and I never put together what the APC recess was about. Now I know

.
I ran my engine today for the first time and it's really not too bad at all. I'll bet it's smoother and therefore quieter than the LA version (not that it's super quiet mind you). I started this hobby with an LA 46 and then noticed how much quieter the 46 FX was when a buddy got one. The same thing may hold true here. I think I'll be happy. Thanks again to all for the input!
