Default First Place Engine 2.4

I'm pretty darn interested in this engine, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of information on it. If anyone has owned one please let me know what you think of it. Also should I be considering other brands such as ZDZ, Brisson, Fox, and BME? What do you think is the best deal for the money?

Default 1st place engines

I believe ZDZ and RCS makes a very good engine that are perhaps lighter in weight than 1st place.

Based on everything I have seen to this point, at 48 oz w/ muffler this might be the lightest of them all. I guess BME is in that class also. The only problem with ZDZ is where they put that stupid carb. It really gets into the way. RCS problem is they don't have an engine in that 40cc range other than the twin, and I don't want to shell out that kind of money for it.

I've got the FPE 2.4 with about 2 gallons throught it now and love it.Starts easily and really pulls my sig extra with no problem,hover and torque roll at 1/3 throttle.I dont have the weight of it off hand along with the others in its class so cant compare them for you.
