Default Ever hear of HS Motors?

Has anyone ever heard of "HS" motors? I recently purchased a century hawk se. It has a HS motor. I can't find any info on them anywhere and could use some help. I know of OS but not HS. It has a blue heat sink on it if that helps anyone.

SH has a big blue head on it?

If so GR8 ? (something) were selling them for like $89......reportedly problematic engines....it seems they're not available anymore.

Let us know how yours runs.

I currently fly an SH engine on my rappy, it performs much much better than my os ever did! It has a great idle and ton's of power for a 30 size engine! specops31 if you don't wan't it I'll take it of your hands, just let me know what you want
stevenyc1, where did you here about these engines being problematic?

I'm pretty sure i read at "Raptortechnique" that the users there were having problems with the SH.....I'm not 100% certain, that is where i read it- but I do recall reading it somewhere....

if you have a strong running SH- then it's good to know their is life in non-OS engines....


I hear the TT39 is awesome.

I've had a couple of SH engines. They don't like high nitro, 10% at the most. Both of mine would detonate on 30%. There is also a problem with the low end mixture setting vibrating out of position. Take it out and wrap it with 4-5 turns of Teflon tape. Be sure not to let any loose ends get into the carb.

They are a good engine and I think made by Megatech. I got rid of mine as I use 30% in everything else and didn't want to buy and carry different types of fuel around. I don't know how they hold up as they aren't very popular if they are even available anymore.
