No doubt, they make an airplane sound like an airplane and not a chainsaw!

I think my only issue with 4-stroke at present is getting a consistent low idle. But with all that torque the plane wants to continue flying an awfully long way before settling onto the runway.

I had the same problem with mine and dialed in some spoilerons. Slows it down in 1/2 the time. I tried flapperons but they don't work nearly as well. Try it if you have a computer radio, the difference is unbelievable. I keep a high idle on my 120 ( 2500 )because it is inverted and have no problem slowing down with the spoilerons. Use about 1/2" up deflection. Banking with the ailerons is hardly affected at all with the spoilerons in effect.
