AVC Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hi all Just by chance I found these engines surfing on internet. They look nice but we know that with an engine is not about how they look but how they perform, and I haven't found anything, other than their own comments. The things is that a 4 st 70 cc petrol for a bit more than 400 quid, sounds quite appealing, although for the same reason, it may be "appalling" in the end... Has anybody heard anything about these guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Cotsford Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Have you tried a search on RC Groups? I think I saw something in the Engines forum a few months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVC Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Thanks Bob, actually this is where I found the advert. I'll have a look in the forums and see what's there Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVC Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Well, I've found this thread on RC Groups. Not a lot of information and no test so far, I'll subscribe and see if there's any update (last post from November...). There's some technical info related to the design of the engine, but I'm not an expert to know whether this is good or not. Maybe some of the engine gurus here could have a look and comment on that?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVC Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hahaha, yes, I suppose you're right. It's always a gamble to bet on the "new kids on the block" (I never liked their songs, btw...). I remember I bough a DL 50cc around 2007, when they were just DL and not DLE, and they were packed in corrugated cardboard boxes with no letters outside. The result was very good and at half the price of a DLE 55 three years later, but it might had worked either way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyB Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Looks interesting, but it certainly seems to have come to market slowly - this thread from FlyingGiants was started in October 2014, but it still doesn't look like anyone with a production engine has flown one yet!
