Graphic, OS Max logoGraphic text, Quality is Everything.
Photo, OS Max 32 SXHThere are plenty of engines on the market to choose from however there one brand that out sells all the remaining companies.  OS Max is a great reliable engine manufactured in Japan.  If the engine isn't running right, you will be spending all your time making adjustments  than flying. No matter what helicopter you have, if it doesn't fly, your not going to learn. If the engine runs rough, it will shake the helicopter apart. Make sure you get a good muffler or pipe. A muffler will usually lend itself to a smoother, easier to adjust engine, that will be more tolerant on a misadjusted carburetor. A tuned pipe will give you a more powerful engine but needs to be tuned to your helicopter 
and is too problematic for the average beginner.
