![]() ![]() I would like some opinions as to which older 16D motors had the most get up and go ! Sure, we have all come across motors that; for some odd reason or another; just flew and were freaks. In the pics, I have shown some real fliers, and possibly the Chong is unchallenged , but the Lenz and French are not too far behind, and the Dynamic Green Hornet will keep up for a few laps, then slowly diminishes as it heats up. Any input, comments and experience with these motors, and any other hot motor of the era, would be greatly appreciated! Zig -------------------- Just be yourself , and do your own thing(ie) !
