RE: Engine Differences...
I just bought an OS.46 AX . It broke in easy , but for a little more money I could of had a Saito.56 and wish I had gone that way.
After flying several flights , the plane was slimed. Yuck! Forgot how messy 2 strokes are. But I well admit, The .46AX was easy to break in and would be a perfect engine for a newbie.
I`m moving on to bigger planes, anyone know where I can get a good deal on a used Merlin ?
