Default Engine for GP reactor biplane

I'm looking at purchasing the new GP reactor biplane. I'm thinking about going with either the Tower 75 or the GMS 76 engines. nothing against OS (besides their prices, and i've had good luck with other engines too)

Just wondering what everyone thought between these 2 engines...or any other suggestions too...I'm going to stay 2-stroke with this plane to have the lightest setup

Default RE: Engine for GP reactor biplane

I could be wrong but I believe they are essentially the same engine. I've seen good and bad luck with both. It seems like when you get a good one they are very strong but if you happen to get a bad one then they can be a headache. Either will fly the plane very well if running good.

I'm looking at the same airplane and can't quite decide if I want it for sure. Well, I should re-phrase that. I definitely want it; just can't decide if I should go ahead and buy it.

I'd very bad luck with a GMS 1.20... I still don't know what happened to that engine but after 4 to 6 mins of running it just stoped. tried everything to fix it but I renounced to that one and went to Supertigre: happy desicion!!!
Cheers
