hi,
apparently, i've been told that the super tigre 4.4cc (.27) is not a good buy...although I am not convinced, then, tell me which ones are good engines to buy ?
is there one (or two) =devilthat is above all ?
 
RB Concepts, Novarossi, O.S., Trinity. RB and Novarossi are probably the best engines you can buy.

I'm not familiar with that particular engine, but I had a Super Tigre .40 in a plane, and I have the Super Tigre .46 in the heli. Both of them flawless. I don't see them making great air engines and lousy ground engines. You might have gotten that info from someone who just didn't tune it right.
Hang in for more info from other members here.

thanks I appreciate.
 
Have to give us some info here! The Picco .12 is a GREAT mill, but I guess not what your looking for? What is the mill going into? Does it have to be pull start,shaft start,starter box? I'm guessing it needs to be a big block..... .21 and up? And, how much are you looking to spend? Are you racing, or just bashing? Do you want best performance,life, or bang for the buck?

All of these are factors in selecting, or giving selections for a new mill.
 
Nah you don't need to give any of that info up...PSU is really a spy working for NATO looking for terrorists using nitro R/C for the sole purpose of peeking into womens locker rooms at college campuses across the USA.....don't give up ANY of that info, he's "Da Man"





OK I need some coffee now, I don't think straight til I'm caffeinated......
 
What kind of rig is it going to be run in? We might be able to help a little better if we knew.
 
lol if plaid is correct in his assumption, would you also be into selling bootleg copies of your video of the terrorist acts?? I sure hope so. If you have some, I'll be there soon on my :moped:
 
Plaid, i'm all for seeing college women! Maybe i I was looking for tips......
 
Novak I was looking to put a new engine in my T-maxx so I did a lot of research for big blocks, and I decided that I like the OS best overall. Not only do they have stupid rediculous power output, but their engines seem to last very well and be pretty user friendly. There are a lot of good brands, OS just seemed to have the best overall for what I was looking for.

If you're not looking for painfull tuning and are looking for big block power then its OS or Axial, with the dark horses, (not to be overlooked) LRP and Nosram. Navarossi, Picco and Sirio are big power but can be headaches if you're like me and not a tuning maestro.
