            longer included per O.S.
          Some differences between 4-Stroke and 2-Stroke engines
           -4-strokes are quieter
           -4-strokes get better fuel economy
           -2-strokes generate more RPM (11,000-13,000 RPM with prop
              while 4-strokes rev to around 9,500 RPM)
           -4-strokes generate much more torque and will swing a larger prop
           -4-strokes have a realistic sound, like a real aircraft engine
