<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I timed my 2 flights tonight flying a DZ, no
restrictor, 30% cool power, 20oz tank. Winds were 12 to 15 out of the south. I
got 11 min on each flight. When I landed, the tank was definately
dry. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=560521004-16092004> Interesting comparison. Some people will
always favor the 4-stroke because they have a different feel but it's
interesting to see the fuel consumption. I was worried about this. Up to now
the biggest motor I have been flying is an OS .61 Long Stroke. It eats fuel
at a pretty good rate. >From what you're showing, it looks like the 1.60
will actually get better mileage. I'm assuming this is because you don't
need to fly it at full throttle all the time. I'm surprised at the big
difference between the 1.60 and the YS. My small 4-strokes (.40 - .46) get
much better mileage than their 2-stroke equivalents. I have an Enya .46
4-stroke in an Ace 4-40 that flies well over 10 minutes on a 6oz. tank
whereas a .40 2-stroke would need at least an 8oz. tank. If you can get 8
minutes out of less than 7oz. of fuel with the 1.60, you must be doing
something right. It looks like I should be happy with my new motor next
season...</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

decided to do a little spreadsheet. Just comparing operation of the
