    In 40 years of aeromodelling I must have had more than 50 OS engines from .15 to 120 and a Wankel and apart from a Perry pumped Hanno Pretner 90 that was a b*gg*r to tune and 1 50 heli engine that needed a new bearing they have all been flawless. IMHO you cant buy better than OS for a good sport engine.

                Os engines are very reliable imo and the os50 hyper (blue head) has only one needle making it very easy to tune. Alternatively you can for os55 which has two needles but comes with more power.cheers

                        Well first depends of the price, and overall from where you buy it from. Well my soul tell me is not advisable but as all the stuff you buy second hand You have to be carefull

                              I haven't try all the brand but for the OS 50 there are few. What I know just make sure that whichever muffler you buy is tuned for your motor because is designed to maximise the performance of the engine itself. I hoped to be helpful
