I'd go for the Honda any day...

[boomboom2005]

are they both 2 strokers? any balance shafts on the v-twin?

[redcatster]

yeah 2 stroke. from the sound and the way they are setup

the twin fires both cylinders at the same time so there is a common crankcase to suck in the fuel. that also makes it hard to start as both cylinders never get the same fuel. No balance shafts are needed. the twin is only really for show i think. it has less power, harder to start and more expensive

[redcatster]

It's on the bottom. Once mounted on plane it'd be on top

[redcatster]

thanks john, still only running in of course but i've added the hp and thrust

[tpvalley]

wheres the carb on the twin?

[4strokemuggy]

RCGF 50cc 23x8 prop

DZT 48cc 22x10 prop

@4strokemuggy not only more prop on the twin but also running pitts mufflers on the vs. header and can setup on the single which makes more power
