The smaller TT engines, (30-50) some are good and some are bad, it's kinda random if you get a lark or a lemon, but they are cheaper. (and many people seem to end up replacing the carb on them with an OS carb) Everyone seems to like all the OS engines, that'd be my pick, though they do cost more than the TT. That's what I have in my R50. No experience here on YS, they seem to be more common in the 60-90 size helis though.

I just put a TT50 on my Sceadu. WOW!!! It started right up -- within 1 min -- better then some OS engines I have owned. The power is incredible (compared to my OS32).

Here's something funny. We were trying to get the engine to run as rich as possible and ended up backing the needle valve all the way out. The motor still ran, though it was pouring fuel out of the muffler.
