Default RE: Complete Newbie building a GP Skybolt. Idiot?

My Experience:

I've always flown 2 strokes, because they were simplier and cheaper. Never had a problem with them......always performed great. Until recently All I've ever flow is is trianer, two sig Fourstars, and a Sukhoi which met an untimly death. "That can be seen on my webiste". I then picked up a Ucando .46 and decided to try a 4 stroker. I put a Saito 1.00 in the nose and man I've decided unless they planes specifically calls for a 2 stroke........I'm not going back. This is my personal opinion.....but I feel that I get better throttle response out of them, they are more relieble, and the power is just great. Yes you take a bit of a weight penalty, but in my mind it's worth it. I've never had a dead stick in two years that wasn't my fault. One was a failed glowplug and the other was well......somebody forgot to top off the tank before he took off. Bottom line is that I won't go back unless I'm building a plane for speed.


I would also like to hear some others opinions.
