Plenty of them, but not the ones that make the rules. Good luck with that one, a lot of people have been pushing to get a class for the Tipo style of plane forever, they simply aren't interested. They'd rather fly Daddy Rabbits with a 91 4 stroke. Nothing wrong with that, but they are ignoring a LOT of people who would love to compete with these fast sleek ships. I am one myself. Maybe they just want to avoid the noise issues that plagued pattern during that era.

All but one aircraft at the Hotlanta meet were four strokes. http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_20...tm.htm#2019541 I’ve owned a four stroke NIB for about 30 years but never have run it. Watching the guys fly at Hotlanta, I found myself missing the sound of the two strokes. Everyone flew very well but you lose some of the zing with the low buzzing sound of the four strokes.
