From my experience with both motors. It seems that the power band is in the mid 14K to 15K range. That is where I have found the best power for aerobatics and the motor running smoothly.

So with a headspeed of 1750, on 8:45 gearing = 14795 revs, ok what about, this thing was mentioned that the MP2 does not come into power band on the 8:45 gearing and that the SB16 is better for the YS91? because it does come into power band?
Cheers David:mrgreen:

This is an answer that Curtis gave to the same question on his website
Curtis Youngblood said:
The MP2 will tend to tune the engine to have its best power at the lower RPM. So I would still recommend the 8 to 1 ratio instead of the 8.4 to 1.
Having said that the 8.4 will work fine it just will not have quite as much power.

I think my OS 50 needs some new powerbands. Will the ones from the 91 fit, and would I get more power with them?
