The way the lower part of the fin (rudder?) is notched, looks to me like it wants an elevator there.

Maybe the builder never got that far?

Sorry, wish I could give more help. Maybe the seller can tell you the recommended engine?

Good luck.

You might want to look into the balance point. It has a nose heavy look in the photos.

Hard to tell from a pic. but I would try a 36 sized engine like a Webra or West, the Irvine 36(?) and OS-32SX are lighter choices...

Jett-40 quickee would be interesting!

A Webra 32 is even lighter than the os32, and more powerful... you're in the UK, it is cheaper too !
