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>
