what's easier to tune?
 

hey i was talking to couple of the buddy today and couple of them told me that a novarossi p5 .21 is easier to tune than a reedy .21. i was wondering if it's true??? WHAT IS EASIER TO TUNE???

OS engines.

i think the reedy is very easy to tune. haven't had a problem yet.

Hmmmm
 

Don't know about the reedy engine, but the P5 has never let me down in like 6 years. Had a few of them....It's not a set it and forget it engine, but if you listen to it, it will tell you what to do....

RB B10 is easy to tune and is very reliable.

+1

os are very good motors and i have never had a problem tuning them

Neither is hard to tune. OS is no easier. I have both. understanding what it's telling you is the key.

im trying to understand what the motor is telling but i still dont understand it. i guess little by little, ill just keep trying to figure it out.

is there any other engine that are easier to tune???

What about GRP engines-now Tecnopower...any input??
The tuned one??

The GRP's tuned different than others. The Nova Rossi/RB/Reedy/OS are all pretty easy to tune. Some react to small carb adjustments quicker. The tuning bible on here should help quite a bit. I havn't read it so I don't know exactly what is in it.

Haven't really experienced any engine that was "hard" to tune (besides engines with ceramic front bearing - that can be quite a pain to tune), but in my experience the OS engines are better at holding a tune.

In my team we run 2 different brands of engines: Ninja JX and SH engines. Ninja JX as the "top engine" and SH as the cheap alternative. I run the Ninja engine (which is an OS), and I pit (and tune) a SH. While they both a pretty easy to tune (if you know what you are doing), the Ninja JX holds that tune the entire day - while the SH needs to be re-tuned a couple of times a day.

Different??? Like?
