You will want to get a 401/9254 combo for sure.

If you can swing...

RE: Rappy 90 with the new YS engine

I'm happy for you. Having a engine that JUST RUNS is awesome. It makes flying really fun.

However, I'm going to suggest to you to keep your engine RPM's below 15,000. I used to run the YS,...
