I've got an old Sukhoi SU-26 kit (first one with the landing gear on the wing) that had a 180 Saito in it. I'm thinking of putting a gasser in it and was wondering how the size/power of the engines coincide. Would a 26cc gasser be too small? I'm not looking for 3D, just nice aerobatics. The one I was looking at was from BCMA engines. Weighs only a few ounces more than the Saito, turns a 16X8 or 18X6 prop. I used to run an 18X5 wood prop on it with the 180. Anyone have any experience with these engines, this plane or this plane with one of these engines? I've seen some 32cc engines but the wieght factor becomes an issue. Ears on.
