I'd be very interested in your performance with those engines.

Default 300xs

I have 48hrs

12hrs over 6 grand the motors are awesome. fuel efficient durrable.

Only issue is that they start to shut down at 6150 and go into gaurdian at 6300. I would imagine with the 1.62 gear ratio you will run out of prop like me.


great engines.
