Heres my delema:

I want to get a new mill soon and was wondering what mill to go with. any feedback is appreciated

24.7 Pro - 6 Port , Big Head, SG, PS OR Picco .26 ??

Thx in Advance
 
I know that you didn't list it, But I liked the Hyper .21, 8 port.
Had it in my savage 21.
Very fast. Very strong, easy to tune.
Good luck
My :2cents:

LMAO...how easy was it? Rhetorical question...please don't answer.

The Hyper .21 8-port is a strong engine, but I am finding that I am wanting more power also. I am looking at bigger and better engines...the RB .28, Fantom .27, and a list of others.

Go with what you can afford and enjoy what you get.
 
Thx for your replys
because i figured those were the 2 best choices out there in that price range. is there another mill thats a lil bit more money but a better performer then those 2?

Thx in advance
 
There are always better engines at higher prices...you have to set your limit and find one that works.

Can you do me a favor and reduce your signature to what the rules allow (which is no more than five lines of text)? Thanks.
 
eheheh dual thunder tiger .70 engines. no I'm just kiddin, but that would be cool. Sirio .27 is my vote. It is like the best engine out there right now.

The Picco would be my choice. The Wasp, Outlaw or Werks versions will do the trick. Lots of power in a Savage...I've seen them in action.

No experience here with the 24.7 although I hear that it produces plenty of power and is easy to tune.

Now for the Sirio 27. The better of what I've seen mentioned here. I've had the opportunity to own 2 of the Ofna/Picco Outlaw 26's and a Sirio 27. The Picco has a lot of low end and will hold it's own against the Sirio 27 in the lower rpm range but it cannot come close to the power the Sirio produces in the mid to upper rpm ranges.

The best price that I've seen is on eBay at $309+shipping for the s27r, pull start.

It produces the same power of mine, the s27pro, non pull start.

Mine
