    If you enjoy more then 3m/s lift this engine is for you. It has got more power then you need, but sometimes that power comes handy. Once I was flying in the evening near water and got a sink down -2m/s. Then being almost 20m off the ground and still having -2m/s I needed to use a full throttle to get +1 m/s. That was the only time I needed a full throttle. But it was really nice to have this power. My friend who flew with me, with Adventure A4 solo 210 powered unit was forced to land.
