Default RPM Ratings

I was just wondering if any one knows how accurate the RMP ratings on engines are?

Default RE: RPM Ratings

i'm not sure if there is a data base where someone has actually tested them. do to these engines being mass produced, i'm sure it will vary greatly from engine to engine even with same modle, tuning, weather, and fuel used. my fantom .18 is rated around 42k and i can see a noticible difference from day to day which i'm sure is mostly do to the weather. they sell point and shoot tacs. for around $20 that you could use to test them, but i wont volunteer my engine to wot with no resistance for testing.

i was just wondering, i was looking at the fantom (was, till they discontinued it, should of fallowed my gut and got it) but now im to the os cvrx .18 and the epic, and the os says 32,000 and epic is like 39,000. so any input is good, but im kind of leaning twords the epic right now.
