Raw Power or Throttle Response
I'm building a Widebody 60/90 with an estimated finish weight of
7 Lbs. and I have two engines, which would you use?
Important I live at 8,000 ft ASL, so we loose a lot of thrust believe me this figures are real.
OS 91FX
Thrust 10 Lbs. APC 14 x 6 between average to bad throttle response.
YS 80ST (Heli engine adapted to Aero).
Thrust 9 Lbs. APC 14 x 6 Awesome throttle response.
Any comments appreciated

Are those your only two engine choices? Personally I'd put both of those engines on eBAY and get me a good YS91 . Or if you don't like YS, go get the Saito 100. Just my $02

I think that the OS will have a fine throttle response. As long as you don't run an APC prop, cause theyre heavy. Id use a good wood prop like Menz, or Bamboola.

My .91FX has excellent power, but I'm about tired of the crappy throttle response. I'm going to try a Glo-Driver, and if that doesn't work. . .
I would go with the YS. Deadsticks live up to their name when you're going low and slow doing 3D stuff.
