sad to tell my story
ive a ts52 which takes 25 flips to pop and another 10 slaps to run
topflite 22x 6-10 with wot spins at 6300 (checked with 2 tachometers)
nowhere near everybodys' claims
manufacturer tuning and my own tuning of ls/hs needles make no difference
can someone tell me thats all it is or otherwise
thx

WOW!!.......your right , that is pathetic! Dude send that motor back to taurus and have them get it going right. Don't take your taurus motor to a LHS unless one of the guys is a gas motor guru and actually know's how the motor is built. That's like taking your dodge V8 Magnum to a honda dealer and asking him to fix it. You problem with that motor sounds like carburation or possibly a faulty ignition..either way , it's a waste of kmoney just letting it run at about 70% of what it's capable of. AND WHY.......would you want another 50cc motor if the one you have is running like crap? If it's for "second" 50cc bird i could see it , but i wouldn't replace that taurus for any of the other motor's in this thread.
I'm going to build me a 50cc bird later this summer as a little knock around plane , and the 3mm motor is priced very well , and has good number's backing it. I'm going to wait until later this summer to make my decision and see what the longivity of this motor is really like. If it start's getting bad reveiws than i'll plop down an extra $300.00 and get a taurus........but i haven't seen a bad reveiw yet.
