The B/D52 is comparable to the A52. The A5 is kind of a blend that is a little smoother.

Raced my RcRenew-modded A5 for probably the last time yesterday, and all I can say is WOW! This engine really rips, and in my truggy it has wicked bottom with a nice smooth power band. Keep a close watch, as it just might show up for sale in the near future as I switch my engines over to Alphas per my Triton RC sponsorship. My experience with Argus has been exceptional, and I'm looking forward to even better things with my modded Alphas. I'm beginning break-in on my orange-head s852 this week, so check out the Alpha thread if you're interested in my journey. Best of luck to all those sticking with Argus engines, they have served me well!!

Nice bud. Wish I could have made it out yesterday, but it wasn't designated as "wifey" day last month. I am trying to go to Nitro Challenge, so it was much needed today. Let me know about the A5. I may just have to pick it up from you. That would give me three for the season and plenty of motor.

Saw this on youtube:

Looks potent..

Don't care really about what Argus is doing in the States. In Europe they're still cheaper than Alpha(though fewer and further between..), so I'm still a fan and hope they stick around at good prices and with good power..

Pulled the Argus A52 out from the bottom of the tool box and slapped it in the 8ight for some running on this nice 40* winter day. This motor is 5 gallons old and hasn't been ran since September, fired right up and only had to do a few hours of each needle to get it running perfect.

The f0801 is the perfect match for this engine.
