Agreed, this engine is pretty terrible quality. I mean, I run a 12X7 prop and max out at 9,400 RPM with 15% nitro, and have tried so far 3 different fuels. This thing is horrible to tune as well. Also really heavy. I have a Saito .62 that was cheaper, lighter, and turns the same prop well over 10,000 RPM on the same fuel... gonna have to get a different propeller it's so powerful! No wonder they discontinued this engine
