    I know, I know; it's not a Honda! Unfortunately im barely flying at the moment and can't justify a Honda.

    Has anyone bought one of these before? Any idea on fuel 'efficiency'?

    3 year warranty too..

      Looks good for the price, I managed to snag a eu10i from ebay last week for £310. Serviced it and it runs so smooth. Charged 6, 6s 3000mah lipo and it did not even break a sweat.

        60 quid. I wouldn't really have to think about it for that!

              I'm pretty sure you'll find it's a two stroke not that that's a problem but it's not going to be very economical. I do have one very similar that I purchased several years ago from, don't laugh everyone, Woolworths. It works a treat and will charge a couple of 6s packs on my cellpro 10 without missing a beat but as I said its not the cheapest thing to run.
              You do get what you pay for and a bit more in this case but don't expect it to be as quiet, as powerful or as bulletproof as a Honda

                Difficult to guesstimate I know, but just how inefficient? £5 last a morning of charging 6s 5000 packs?

                If I was more 'into' my flying, I wouldn't hesitate and get a Honda, but in all honesty I would rather spend the money elsewhere.

                  £5 worth of petrol and about 75pence worth of oil I'd say should easily do what you want but a Honda would do it on a teaspoon full

                        With a 3yr warranty how can you go wrong.

                        May be a little slower on the charge and may be a bit noisier but for the money it looks like a good buy.

                        Get it and let the rest of us know how it goes!

                            Cheap and with a warranty can't be too bad, if it is just take it back.... 2 stroke will be as said above, pretty thirsty, a little more smokey and will need oil in the fuel.

                            Honda's are a massive jump in price.

                            I'll wait out for a cheaper 4 stroke . We can hope...
