I find it odd that people keep hammering GO for producing rebranded engines, yet make no mention of Novarossi, Picco, OS, etc. that do the same thing. There's probably 30 different "brands" that are made by Novarossi, and most of those are nothing but rebranded Novarossi products, usually based on the P5.

There is only 2 ways that I see to crack into the market with an engine brand. 1. Make it better than anything else out there like FX is doing or 2. Make it decent but so cheap that people will at least try it. A good running engine that gets ample runtime, is easy to tune and lasts 4-5 gallons for $100 would fly off the shelves.
Or an aggressive marketing campaign and a large fan base.
