Check out the RCU review. The reviewer used a radial engine in his model and it flew very well (in the video). I have the Rearwin Speedster and it is a very nicely built plane. I powered mine with a Roto 35 gasser. Since they are the same size you could easily go with gas for this plane and save a ton of money on fuel.

A gasser would work well in this plane but I bought it specifically as a home for my Saito 170 Radial, the same one used in the RCU test and also by Dick Pettit in his RC Reports test. I just think that beautiful cowl deserves to have a radial in it.
Thanks for the input.

I got a full set for mine from CajunRC a few months ago. They gave me nice outlined wing & vertical rudder numbers and the "The Monocoupe" lettering for the vertical fin and "MMM" logos after the rear side windows. Came to $60 - good deal in my opinion for vinyl with this quality.
BTW...RCS 1.80 Gasers work great in the 'Coupe.

Hi Dick.
I have the same engine for mine. BTW, my wife would like to thank you. It's because of your write up in RC Reports that I went out and bought this baby! LOL!
"Another plane?" she said.
I told her it was your fault.
