My first engine was an Evo engine. I never had any trouble. These are good for beginners because the don't need much breaking in. The trainer system is awesome because it has a fly wheel and a three bladed prop.

The three bladed prop slows the airplane down and give more thrust for taking. It also helps slow the airplane down when landing. Three bladed props in general are very inefficient which is usually bad. But it is good for a beginner.

When you become comfortably flying the airplane with the three bladed prop and fly wheel, you can remove them both and its like you have a brand new more powerful engine!


I personally think its a pretty sweet set up for someone starting out. It was for me at least. I guess if mine gave me a bunch of problems I would be singing a different tune. From personal experience I was happy with mine.
