So power wise you are saying it is close to the power of a YS 1.40 Sport??!? Wow, for the money and weight (almost 2 oz heavier) I would have at least expected it to be close to the 1.70DZ. Who would want that?
Robbidos,

I don't understand what you are saying. The OS weighs 1.5 oz more with the stock mufflers, and a little more than an ounce more (40 g) than the YS without mufflers. The OS costs less than the YS too. Reports I have read place the power in the same ballpark as the YS 1.40 sport, but on 15% instead of 30% fuel, with the added capability of swinging a much larger prop more like the 1.60fx. The OS 4-strokes I have owned


Chuck, it is my understanding the 200FI is "supercharged" similar to the YS. Too bad they don't make a carburetted version with the pump and supercharging.
