OK, Help me out, Please
I am trying to find a ROUND COWLED ship, in the 20 or so lb range. It needs to have abt a 9.5 or 10" diameter cowl. Need a home for a BEAUTIFUL SAITO 450 radial.
Anny Suggestions??
Thanks,
Steve

How about a Stinson Reliant, or a 1/4 scale DeHavilland Beaver, or a 1/4 Nieuport 17 or 28, or Sopwith Pup; all have round cowls, wouldn't be true scale on WWI bipes because the engine wouldn't spin around. Saw a Pup with the 3 cyl Saito radial. Looked terrific.

Swooper, you are right about the 450 looking good in a 1/3 scale Bücker Jungmeister. Here is mine built from a short kit from www.arizonamodels.com and Gary Allen plans. Weighs 27# but the 450 would pull it just fine.
I just went over to Arizona Model Aircrafters home page and could no longer find the short kit listed, however, Model Airplane News still has the plans in their catalog.
