I was meaning about the OLDER engines from back in the day of the Falcon 56. Not mark I, mark II or mark III. Today's .46 puts out about as much power as my old .60's from way back when.

Yes O.S. is a good engine. I will not say it is not. Just a bit pricey for me. My Magnums work as well. I picked up a Magnum .46 on sale for $47.99. Hard to pas up. The only thing I have done to it is to take off the needle valve clicker and put a piece of fuel tubing on to seal the needle vale. I do that to all of my engines any way.

I just looked and the K&B is now a Super Sportser 45.

To me, there are no bad engines. Each has its own setup. You can not tune an O.S. like a K&B or a Magnum like a Rossi. Each brand has its own personality.

I have only had one engine that I could not get to run. It was a Como .19. Never could figure that one out. Flew great at full throttle only.
