A word of caution -- I have seen good reports of great power from this engine but I have also spoken to folks and seen reports of issues of 303(and 250) not being tested properly for North America fuel. My understanding is that the octane levels are not right and cause heat issues and burning holes in the top of pistons. Make sure you check the proper mixtures before you use. I suggest you verify directly from Polini - from the horses mouth is always best. I am thinking of getting one and that is what I will do. Cheers
Great Advice! Thanks. We are in touch with head office on this issue and they are sending out new heads that lower the compression slightly to account for the fuel.
@@fisherflyingproducts5747 Good to know you folks are on top of this -- I will be looking to you for a new engine if I decide to stick with ICE. Cheers
I was excited to see it a while ago and hope it does well for you all!
Good update 👍
First!:) That new aircraft looks really good. Thanks for your video!
We are very excited about the response we are getting!
Does the Thor 303 come in place of the 250 now if you order one of your complete packages?
Yes. They stopped making the 250 and the 303 weighs 1 lb less.
very interesting...
