  • Recommend me a new engine please!

    For a raptor 30, still very much a beginner! And how much would it cost???

    Thanks, Darren

    Personally, I've never had a problem with an Irvine 36H and Enya 3 plug.

    Never failed to work, never let me down and always plenty of power.

    60 quid I've seen them for at Inwood Models.

    Perfect for a beginner. If you have a bit more cash, you could go for the trusty OS 37.

    Cheers

        Or the OS32. Someone told me the OS37 suffers like the 50 Hyper with rear bearing failure. The bearing in the OS 37 is an odd size and as such is very expensive. The OS 32 has been bullet proof for lots of people requiring no bearing changes.

          OS37. More power than a 32 and runs cooler.

          Good engine. No probs with mine in over a year & half.
          Happy Landings.

            Id go with the os37 ive had 2 with no problems the extra power is very usefull once you get past learning hovering,
            I found mine easier to tune than the 32 and as said above it runs that little bit cooler rather than being on the verge of seizing

                you could do what most do and that go with a OS 50 hyper you will have to upgrade boom gears blades and pin. but that said once you have done that it will keep you happy from start the full 3d

                  I had the os37 like many others had no problems with it until I upgraded to the 50, which as 3dee says is an option
                  All the best
