    Status: offline     		Since I have the 50cc engine on order, I will look for the GP Giant Aeromaster instead of the Stearman.
    Love the Stearman though, but I guess it's better suited for a smaller power plant.

    Thanks

    Status: offline     		I agree, this is not an airframe for a 50cc motor. Even thought that motor is a small 50, it is about twice the motor needed. I only have a Saito 150 in mine. Want to sell it now before you destroy it?

    Status: offline     		My friends 1/3 scale Pitts is a real hot rod whth a Brison 50, and the stearman is considerably smaller. I think it will rip the porr plane apart. He's being a bit greedy, they fly fine with a 26, and a 40 max would make it totally crazy with power. The Stearman is a crop duster type plane, not a high speep stunt plane like the Pitts. Just a big lumbering teddy bear...
