Thanks guys, I'd be the first to admit that I have had limited time on gas engines; hence my interest in hearing from those who have. I've tried SPE and CRRC Pro - but never push/fly them on an intensive frequency like I have some nitro engines. Interestingly, both EIs died within the first gallon.... But as long as the EI is working, they've both been easy to start, tune and fly .... so far! I've heard about the bearings too, but touch wood, mine are still holding up with the little use they've gotten.

So it sounds like LS Pro is the only one with a happy user/seller? Larry, could I please trouble you to post some tach/prop if youhave some available? I'm interested and it would put to paid the power argument (which I think is generally true of many chinese engines) that has been raised.

Thanks.
