For a glow engine, the OS FT-1.60 Twin is a perfect match, sounds great, swings a relatively large prop and the cylinders stick out relatively scale like. For gas engines, a Zenoah G26 is a good match but will require cutting the cowl for the side mount carb and for the spark plug wire. __________________ Flying: Nelson 1/5 & 1/4 WACO YKC-S, 1/4 scale J-3, 1/4 Auster AOP9 Building: Platt ME-109, Proctor Jenny Restoring: Royal P-26 Waiting: Vailly Tempest, Vanguard Firefly, BUSA 1/3 Cub   Back to Top  Printer Friendly Version  Profile  Search
