Default AP Wasp .061 and Little Stik question

I wanted to ask, if anybody has experience with this engine and if it works well? I would like to know that before I invest the money

And then my other questions, does a Little Stik, this 19" span airplane, maybe it's called the Ugly Stik, I don't remember , but would this plane fly with a .049 Cox Black Widow? I mean the plans recommend a .010 Cox engine ...

bye bye

yes it will fly with the 049 but not well....and glide like a greased brick if that well ....Look around the forun for a LS150 which is the
little stick @ %150....that would be a great choice for a black widow or the 061.....I have not heard anything bad about the Wasp
around here but I always tend to go for the Norvel myself...

Yep, 19 is WAY to small to do any more than fly fast but not well. The 30 inch LS150 is a much better choice.

I scaled down a Sig Wonder to 17.5" that weighed 8oz with a Norvel AME .061. Whoo boy, that thing required quick reflexes. Under power it was like greased lightning, and deadstick it was like the aforementioned greased brick.

If you want to build a standard sized Littlest Stick, go with an .010 or .020.

I'll bet that was a hoot to see fly -- I expect your fingers looked like greased lightening on the sticks, too.
