<DIV> Luis put me in for liking the Webra 145 too. Also Tony Stillman reported last week that they are on sale for $259 now. That's a steal. The Webra's can stand up to any of the top engines today and they are easy on the wallet too. Mike<BR><BR><B><I>"White, Chris" <chris@ssd.fsi.com></I></B> wrote:

I have no experience with the Mintor, but I am now running 2 Webra<BR>145AAR's in 2 Zen 120 airframes which give me a cost close to the price of 1<BR>full blown pattern bird with a YS DZ. I'm very happy with the reliability<BR>of the Webra and the Zen flies better than anything I've flown. (over 30 yrs<BR>in R/C) I'm sure this ARF airframe will serve to improve my flying in the<BR>Intermediate class. I have 87 runs on one Webra and the other one has 2<BR>new out of the box with easy tuning. Don't get me wrong, the YS is a great<BR>engine, but I find the Webra is low maintenance, low vibration and a<BR>powerhouse (unlimited vertical on the 10lb airframe at 750' ASL on 15%<BR>nitro).

has not been repeated. <BR><BR>Best of luck....<BR>Chris White<BR>Owasso, Oklahoma<BR><BR>-----Original Message-----<BR>From: discussion-request@nsrca.org<BR>[mailto:discussion-request@nsrca.org]On Behalf Of Roberto Estrada<BR>Sent: Tuesday, November 04, 2003 6:37 PM<BR>To: discussion@nsrca.org<BR>Subject: Mintor 1.7<BR><BR><BR>Hi, I'm happy of be a NSRCA member (just one month a go) and is great look<BR>my name at K-factor (october).
