The good part is that there are probably tons of NIB or near NIB large Super Tigres floating around in various places.

I used to groan whenever I saw a relative newbie break out a model with one of those engines on the nose. Nope, the engines were fine, but they were quite different in operation and fuel requiresments than what the average newbie was used to dealing with.

Of course, no one listened to the gray beards at the field that knew how to run them, so we just sat back and waited until they became discourage and waited for the engines to be sold cheaply. I had quite a collection of those "junk" Super Tigre, ASP and Fox engines over the years. Then I got cheap and switched to gas engines, having sold off the previously mentioned engines to finance several BME, Brison and RCS engines. Not sorry I did. I hate cleaning up glow goop from models.
