Default What airplane for Cox Sure Start .049

So I have one of these $6 engines on the way, now what should I stick it in? I am thinking of building something myself, maybe T-38ish, flat foam wing...any other ideas? Besides the LS150....

I'm thinking a little C/L job would be cool. For R/C, my thoughts were leaning towards a GLH-type. Something fast, so that I don't feel the loss of throttle control is a big deal. Let us all know what you come up with!

There is alot of planes that a Cox .049 can fly. Pick your style of flying and go from there. Most direct drive Speed 400 planes can be flown with a good running .049.

Later,
Tim

look t the GWS line of airplanes...just about all of them would make good glow planes...i'm not sure how the fuel will act on the foam,but if it works out ok it will be a great plane...it should fly better than electric due to the weight saving...

good luck happy flying...
