Default engine woes....

well I tried to fly today but the thunder tiger engine would not couperate. I could get in some time before the engine would cough and eventually quit in the air. so I thought i should fly really high that way when it dies I would have lots a altitude well no good on that, nasty weather and a low cealing kept me down.
the only thing the fellas out at the field could do to help it was recomend a 10x6 prop for the engine but it should not be doing this.
I am going to get one of the black props in a 10x6 and if that engine doesn't quit being all screwy its going in to the trash.

people have recomended a tower hobbies engine as next thing to the os for a 2 stroke and saito 4 strokes. I will propably get a tower hobbies .46 BB engine because there are 3 tower trainers with towers .46 bb engine on em and they are giveing the racers and sport pilots planes a run for there money. there was a 4* with a 1.20 4stroke (over proped) that was moveing pretty quick and they were running hotter than that.
thanks all I just needed to put that out there. the thunder tiger has given me chit from the very begining and its had many a tank of gas through it and im tired of puting up with it.
