Correct. However, the real price is in the Fuel and not just the engine. The engine will last a long time if one props it slightly lighter. It's the fuel that's the killer, at $40/gallon. A quart of Synthetic oil is $12 right now in the USA so if one mixes 30% fuel then the fuel cost is significant (over $40/gallon in most countries). So lower oil and lower Nitro end up making the engine a great choice overall. And besides, it's just a cool engine. In about 20 gallons or so you can make up over half the cost of the engine, and you also get all the other attendant benefits of CDI...

I do like the idea of a 110S CDI. I'll have someone check at the factory. Hopefully next year!
