RE: Debonair Engine
I have both the TT46 Pro and the GMS 47. The TT start easy and idles consistently. The GMS
is finicky to get running well and if your not familiar with tuning these engines then the GMS will frustrate you to no end. There are several web sites about how to tune and tweak the GMS engines. Once they are running well then they appear to have a bit more power than the TT but
on the DEB the TT would be my 1st choice. Maybe because this was my 1st plane and I had no trouble with the TT and it has Plenty of power to haul the Deb around. I solo'd with the DEB. I was alot like Frank and his web site tells the story that alot of Us go through, I could be his twin. I have never regretted going with the Deb and the TT. The Deb can take one helluva beating and still fly predictably. My 2nd plane was the dominator with the GMS 47. I had to run several tanks of fuel through it before I would feel comfortable with putting the Dom in the air. The TT though I could of put into the air on the 1st tank.
Spend the extra money on the TT and it will serve you well.
