I saw a stack of them at my local hobby shop. [8D] They were loudly calling my name!

There's threads in the Classic Pattern, and Extreme Speed Prop Planes forums, but I don't think anyone's gotten one yet?

You can be the first kid on your block with one, and tell us how it runs! [8D]


I have the OS .55AX (the first of this type of engine) and then I bought the Enya .61CX. Both are great engines, but neither match a contemporary state-of-the-art engine in power/performance. After all, they are running with less induction tract volume than the .45 and .52 sized engines from whence they came. They are good for muscling around a .40 sized plane, but neither is equal to a true sixty. I don't see why anyone would expect the new Evolution .45 based .60 to do any better. Maybe as well, but not better.

I don't have any lofty expectations but at $149 I bet it is quite a bit stronger than your average 40-45 which is what I am expecting. I doubt it to be as strong as a 60 size 60 but who wants a 61 these days when you chan have a 75, 90 or 95 the same size!
