| Hi Kaos,
You'll have to wait a bit for the "C" spec with 8mm Heim crankshaft. I've asked around and nobody has it yet :-(
To answer some of the questions you had in your earlier post. The engine needs to have the 8mm Heim crank and be of similar dimensions as the OS 91 FX/SX, therefore you're somewhat limited to engine choices (OS/Webra/Rossi). I haven't seen a YS with a Heim crank which doesn't mean it doens't exist.
The OS 91 FX specifically seems to have a bit better torque in the low end as compared to the Webra (as Carp already pointed out, but I think you can tune the engine for lower torque specifically if you use the MC carburetor or the Lötterle 11mm - the 12mm is best for higher rpm). Changing the ratio to 8.3 should solve any problems there but consider that a higher reving engine is louder. One of the appeals of the heli is a low reving engine on a pipe - hence quiet.
As for how awesome this heli is. Well, anyone that has flown one becomes addicted to it and won't fly anything else (it's really boring to fly my 30 now).
Enjoy!
