HI Guys,
I have also found this company in China called "Zhejiang RCGF Model and Engine Co. LTD". They make a two stroke gasoline engine called the "RCGF 15cc CM-6 mini Plug" sold by "Apage Racing and Hobby LLC" here in the U.S.. They have one of these on Ebay for $230.00. It includes the Ignition system and the stand off mounts mounts for the firewall! Its smaller than the Zenoah 20cc, and it is advertised to fit into 40, 50 and 60 size airplanes!
I emailed the owner of Apage Racing and Hobby, his name is Jim Willis, and he confirmed that it will fit in My Sig Four Star 40!
Does anyone know anything about this RCGF 15cc engine?

RE: Saito FG-14b
I started this thread when I was excited about the release of the motor. I played around with my FG-20 for a few months. I took my will to continue trying to use the motor. I gave up. I asked Horizon to take the NIB motor back. They did. I never had the will to take the motor out of the box.
Sorry guys,

Speed racer2112,
Today at my LHS, I found out that Saito now recommends that the FG-20 must have a oil-gasoline mix of 20:1 instead of 30:1 and you must use a 6v ignition battery instead of a 4.8v. They say this should solve the starting problem if that was the issue you were having?

RE: Saito FG-14b
I have decided to stick with two stroke gasoline. Magnum will be coming out with a .52 glow size 8.2cc two stroke gasoline engine for $200.00 later this summer! I'm going to wait and see how this engine works.
