RE: ZDZ GONE BAD!!!!!
I've been following the history of the ZDZ and RC Showcase engine lines since they hit the market, and I'm sorry to say what you have experienced isand has been all too common. And yes, I have experience with both, up to the 215 radial.
I'm really sorry to hear the way they're making you take it in the shorts, and it sounds like it's time to make a change. It's for ceratin that this kind of customer treatment and testimonial reinforces my decision never to purchase another.
Dntmn,
Since I know your background, your update to texomalaser's efforts solidly reinforces his credibility. I'm guessing that you've been working on the issues with him where needed.
