Rotec Radial Vs. Lyc -- Dilemma
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 5:46 pm
Craig,
Like you wrote.... Lyc is a no brainer. Yes, Rotec Radial is a nice piece
of work and their getting more in field information feedback with regards to
engine performance and/or issues. The choice you have to make is do you
want something practical to use and maintain or an engine that looks great.
The Rotec HP/Weight Ratio is High and will there be anyone willing to work
on it ? What about getting parts for your Rotec ?
The Rotec is nice "eye candy" and you will always be center of attention
where ever you fly......... but at what cost ?
Things to ponder.
Cheers,
Jeff
