I installed this engine on a .60 size Big Stik and it has been everything I hoped it would be. I like it so well that I have bought a second one for a future airplane.

I ordered this engine to install it on a Big Stick 60 that had a 4 stroke .91 on it. Aside from replumbing the tank and moving some radio equipment around, the change out went flawless. It took about a half day for the setup and I fired it up last night. No adjustment were needed on the carb and it runs perfectly. I'm so impressed with this engine that I just bought another this morning. I dont need it but I'm sure at some point I will find somthing to put it on. As always, thanks to Motion RC for providing top notch products at competitive prices. You're doing everything just right so please dont ever change!

What a beautiful little motor we have here. We bought it to fly a classic 30 year old Cub J-3 1/4 scale from a SIG kit. Connected it up, choked it, ignition off, spun the prop, ignition on, bank she started in less that one revolution. Runs smooth, with great transition. I will definitely be buying and recommending these to my friends at the field. Thanks for a great product.

Have run my first 32oz of gas in the engine and have done three flights so far still on break in oil mix (25=1) . Plenty of power turning a 13 x 8 prop good idle and power up. I have installed in a Tiger 60. A little oily around the muffler seam. Will be going to the standard run oil mix (33=1)next flights and will see how it does then. So far very happy with this motor. and will consider changing out any .61 or .91 glow engine on other planes. The instruction sheet is very good.

bought this engine for a 90 size trainer and it has preformed great. Did the first hour of break in on a stand which was very easy used an electric starter and it fired up almost instantly. I have four 15 minute flights on it and not one hiccup. the plane I mounted it on has a 7 foot wingspan and this engine is almost to much. once completely broke in I plan on mounting it on a phoenix 63 extra 300 sl can`t wait for that. so far this engine has proven itself to be reliable. as far as fuel economy the first hour of break in time used only about 7.5 oz. @ 3300 rpm. as far as real flight time goes I`m getting 15 mins. on approx. 2 oz. and I`ve got a 16 oz. tank also there is a tachometer that plugs into the ignition module and has a digital read out that is available not sure if motion has it but you can get one online just search ngh engines.
