RE: Magnum XLS 46---good engine or waste of money?
I've got three of them and have never regretted the choice one time on the 46XLS. Been running them for years with no problems and lots of power. I did have a 52XLS that gave trouble in midrange throttle but, Global stepped right up to the plate and replaced the engine no questions and this engine was about two years old.
I cannot in anyway complain about the Magnums. I also run Tower Hobbies and Saitos and have had no problems. I do have an OS40LA that is pretty weak but, to be fair, the engine was bought used and is several years old.
