Default Engine delay in flight?

I just started flying, 16 flights so far. On the 3rd flight I broke the motor mount, and when I replaced the mount ,I also installed an Evo .46 trainer engine, in place of the Supertigre GS40 I had in it.
My question is, when flying, is there always a 3/4 second or so pause when you operate the throttle. I did`nt notice this ,the 3 flights with the Supertigre but I was really wound up the first 3 or so flights and don`t remember.
The Evo has a flywheel weight on it and was running a 11x5 prop.
Or? is it the time it takes the sound to get back to me. I`m a newbie , what can I say lol?
