Are you dissing that purring ***** cat?

Unlike a lot of other 4-strokes out there, this engine has never bit me and consistently fires in the right direction. I don't even bother to prime -- just apply the 12-volt Tower Hobby starter to the Higley prop nut and wait until I hear a slightly different sound, she be purring. She only roars when I slam the throttle full forward after she is in the air. I don't think I ever had to execute a takeoff roll greater than 1/2 throttle with this combination.
