Status: offline 		That is the perfect engine for that plane... Just not enough weight though. It needs the weight of a Quadra 65 or 75.
I will try to find pics of mine in my computer and post them.
You will have to cut out alot of the bottom, but it wont stick out too bad.
You will need to keep everything in the fuse AHEAD of the CG and you will still have a pound or 2 of lead on the front of the cowl to balance it with that motor on it.
You will not get it to weigh less than 25 pounds, RTF either. Mine was 29lbs, and it flew great.
The photos I posted have a moki 2.1 in it that has lead bolted to the rails. It weighed 6 pounds when I took it off.
