Tauras engine prices
The problem boils down to this. There simply is not enough data out there to demonstrate statistically that the Taurus is superior to a Brison in power. I have tached a Brison 3.2 that gives identical performance to Michael Glavin's best numbers for the Taurus 3.2 with a Mejzlik 22x10 prop. Until Taurus engines get into the hands of more modelers, there is no way to prove that it is better (on average). So far, only a very few of their engines are out there. EJB and I have seen, tested, tached and flown quite a few of the ZDZ motors. The 40 single, 80 twin and 80 single as well as the Brison 3.2 and 2.4, 3W-100 and 3W-80. We've been voting with our wallets for the ZDZ.
I do hope more of you guys buy the Taurus. That way, I'll get to see how they really measure up without having to invest my money. Personally, I'd much rather have the ZDZ-80 single than a Taurus 2.6.......and they cost about the same!
