Default Hanger nine 25% cap232 Matt chapman

I have a hanger nine 232 quarter scale that had a YS120 in it, but now needs a new gas motor for. What would be my best, and least expensive choice? thanks

I flew one with a MVVS 35cc gasser. Flew it well but the carb sticks out of the cowl a bit in front.

I have one, and my opinion is it's a lead sled. Better to get a different plane instead of messing with the 25% Chapman.

I appreciate your view, but I have a totally different take on the chapman. The man I bought it from loved the plane after some pretty aggresive mods where done to it, that take some of the stall characteristics out of the airframe. I had half dozen flights out of it before I blew the engine. In my opinion it was pretty floaty when trying to land, But to be fair other than electrics I really dont have that much experience with big aerobats. It might be a case of ignorance is bliss on my part. Thanks for the responses and lets think cheaper on the power plants. thanks
