I have a kit built extra 300s with about an 80in. wing span. I would like to know if a magnam 1.8 two stroke will give it 3d capability. If not what should I use?

Thanks

I know a Moki 1.8 will fly it good. I've Never even seen any magnum engines around here.

The magnam will be at the power limit. I would recommend a ZDZ, FOX, or Taurus motor to get true power

Hey,

Thanks guys for all your help. I'll keep all your comments in mind. I think I will go with a bigger engine after all. Maybe a G-38 Gasser. But Im certainly goin for a gas engine to put in it. Thaks guys.
