Some wakefield guys claim that the 2012-2013 batches are real nice,
unfortunately my F1B motor testing rig has been a bit broken for a
while, so I have not tested the latest batches. The SuperSport before
that has been similar to average Tan II at best, so not par to 99/5. On
the other hand, F1B guys are giving up using Tan II as the rubber is
getting fragile (and in outdoor flying a broken motor during the short
fly-off window is a bad thing), so I suspect in a few years the Tan II
rubber will be too old and brittle even for indoor use.
