Yardy, what's the wingspan and what will it weigh with a 5 lb engine up front?

If you are economy minded, you might get a US41.

More power but still not too pricy would be a Zenoah G62.

There are a lot of engines out there with more power than the air frame could stand, however, if you have deep pockets and want to try a light weight twin then have a look at the BME 80.

From a personal point of view, I would stay away from a glow type engine.

HEY YARDY, THE BIG STYK WAS MY FIRST GIANT SCALE 14 SOME YEARS AGO. WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE? ANYWAY, I CHOPPED THE WING TO 98 INCHES AND BLUNTED THE WING TIPS IT ROLLED LIKE A SWEET STICK THEN. I HAD A KAWASAKI ENGINE ON MINE. WITH AN 18X12 PROP, IT WAS FAIRLY FAST AND HAD LOTS OF PULL. THIS WAS WAY BEFORE HOVERING WAS THE THING TO DO. WTH THE LONG FUSELAGE I KNOW IT WOULD HAVE DONE THAT WELL. ANYWAY, DONT KNOW IF YOU CAN GET KAWASAKI'S ANYMORE, BUT THAT WAS AN AWESOME COMBINATION. I MISS THAT BIRD EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE. WITH THE MALTISE CROSSES ON IT, I KIND OF THOUGHT IT WAS A STAND WAY,WAY OFF WARBIRD. WELL, MAYBE NOT. NOTHING BEATS A STUKA! HOPE THIS HELPS. OH YAH, THE STYK WEIGHED 22LBS.
