In 2000 at the World Champioinship, Kagan used a 1.9 g motor, and Richmond used a 1.23 g motor. Kagan won by 6 seconds, so a heavier motor is definitely better :)

 Richmond put in 2510 turns and backed off 100.
 

 Kagan put in 2300 turns and backed of 170, 60 turns remaining.

 I saw many models torque-ing around on launch with excessive down-thrust. I didn’t experience these problems, but I don’t think it was because my motor sticks were significantly stronger. I think that the large motor I was using allowed me to back-off much of the initial peak, reliving a lot of stress on the model (2300 turns in, 170 backed off, 60 left after flight).

 

 See, everything and nothing makes sense !
 

 John, Jim, please correct these figures if necessary.
