RE: enya .09
Back in about the seventies, when I was learning control line, my only engine for a while was the Enya 09, it powered many Aeroflight kits over a few years, the last model I can remember was a jr Ringmaster, where I found the "wrong side" exhaust outlet to be a problem.
They were basic, and started with the half flat batteries and prop flicking and taught me how to make model engines work :-)

I've got an Enya .35-V TV still new in the box that I've been thinking about converting to CL. How does it compare with other .35's for CL stunt, wingspans of 42" (1067 mm) to 45" (1143 mm)?

This engine should work great as a CL stunt engine with the right prop/venturi setup.
It will have more power than your standard Fox 35, OS35S or Merco 35 type stunt engines
so I would say that 42-45" span models would be a bit small for this engine.
The engines mentioned above will comfortably power a 54" span stunt model.
I'll leave it to stunt gurus here to give you any further information.

Fredo, the .35 Enya I have is one of the last production models with the plain crank bearing and baffle piston, but if it is a power house, then that is great. I have plans for a 55" span Supermarine Spitfire profile stunt with flaps, I wanted to move up to a big plane, thought I'd need a .45 engine for it. I noticed that CL venturis and spray bars are still available for it, so I can do the conversion.
