Well that is it for me and OS engine they are not what they use to be have a OS max-55AX and after one and half seasons it is done. It started to run bad about 6 flights ago and progressively got worse And a lot noisier. So decided to have a look inside. After disassembling the motor found the chrome or what ever they use coming off the liner, it is toast will not buy a new piston and liner because I cannot find out if they have fixed the problem. Too bad I always like OS.

That's a shame. The only nitro engines I like are the Saito 4-strokes. They are getting really pricey though:-/

Do you know anything about the sleeve problems OS is having at the moment. I would like to buy a new sleev and piston but only if they have fixed the problem.

I can get you one for $80 but I'm not sure what it would cost to ship to Canada.
But I have no idea if it's any different than the stock one.
