I am thinking about getting either a .55 AX or a .32 SX. The SX has 5,000 RPM on the AX, but the AX has a touch more power. What do you guys think, also is there another engine in somewhat of the same price range that would do even better? Thanks.
Que? What difference does the manufacturer's rpm rating make to your engine choice? They don't use the same props. Horsepower = speed, assuming prop choice is sensible. I doubt you'll be too thrilled using an engine from the bottom end of the range, and of course that's certainly not in keeping with the normal mindset on this forum. The .55 would be a better choice for this model. It's not a rocketship, the airfoil is pretty thick, but it moves along smartly. My choice was an OPS Super .60 with pipe, because I had one needing something to bolt it to.
