Sweet! You decided to get one then Still really thinking about getting one too. Is that the RMJ conversion?

Yes it's the RMJ conversion. There was one left in stock here in the US so I jumped on it. I will try to get a video up soon but I'm having a little trouble with the leaking fuel tank and clutch issue.

Forgot to mention the setup.
YS 91 tareq with Mstudio pipe
Futaba CGY750
Savox servos
695 Helix blades
115 Sab tail blades
2100 headspeed in idle 2
Comparable to my electric E700 in flight.

Such a good conversion and the prototype with a 105 in it was brilliant although it'll be no slow coach with the Tareq!

You're right! I was tempted to put a ys120srx in there but with only a little bit of decent Weather left for the season I opted for the more reliable option.

Had nothing but trouble with the 120 srx's I ran hence back to OS! Having said that when they were singing they were awesome engines.

Thumbs up

I knew that the original 120sr was a failure but I thought the new srx was better? Glad I got a 91 then! My engine is still cool after a flight so plenty more power to find. About 2 gallons through at this point.

Finally got a tank that doesn't leak and also adjusted settings on the cgy governor to get it to quit surging. Had a few great flights before the sun went down last night.
Can't post pics now for some reason..

It is powerful. Probably the best flying nitro that I've had except for the 91 powered 600n that I had a few years ago. Weight is a little less than 9 pounds with no canopy and a little fuel in it.

Thanks guys! I may have another video to share from our funfly. Engine and governor were working much better at the funfly.

This thing is a lot of fun. I'm flying it right now actually hahaa. Full tank gets me 7.5 minutes of flight time at 2050. Just as snappy and poppy on collective as my electric one.
