Has anyone had any experience with Como engines? Where is a good
place to buy them?

I HAVE ALWAYS FOUND COMO'S AT THE LOCAL HOBBY SHOP. IF YOU CAN'T
FIND ONE TRY INDY RC.
I'V USED COMO'S ON AND OFF OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS. ITS MANUFACTURED
BY SUPER TIGER FOT THE AMERICAN MARKET. THE ENGINE INCLUDES MOSTLY
THE SAME COMPONENTS AS A S/T AND RUNS THE SAME. THE ONLY ADVANTAGE
IS THE PRICE IS ABOUT 20% LESS.

Bob,
Actually your right but wrong. In many ways the como
is like the supertiger but they are two different companies.
The story goes that the son of the owner of supertiger wanted
to try a couple of different approaches so he and his dad set
up a new company called Como. That is the reason for the similarities.
Supertiger has since been bought out I think by tower hobbies.

ITALY "
