RE: GMS 47 = garbage
Eh, if it is garbage PLEASE send it to me.
I'll take it off your hands!
I second BigMustafa's comments...
... And ( knocks on wood ) I haven't had problems with the remote needle, though I periodically check the tightness, fittings and also replaced the tubing. I also use filters on my engines.
I'll trade a used Evolution 1.00 NX for an equally used or unused GMS 1.20 anyday.
All of my Tower Hobbies engines run very well after break-in too.
