Default OS 26 4-stroke needs plane

What is a good plane for this engine, OS 26 4-stroke? I like my 3d plane but would just enjoy a nice easy flier. Maybe something I can teach my boy with. Motor runs great, turns a 10-6 at a little over 10,000, quiet and starts easy. Profile would be fine with me, looking for inexpensive more than fancy.

It will pull a Great Planes Cub .20 really nicely but that's a bit fancy.

Is there any 3d plane made for this engine size? What prop would be best?

Maybe a Taco .25 ? Could downsize the plans for a smaller plane. Not familiar with what a .26 4-stroke can do.

They fly great with smaller engines. No problem for a kid to fly, 3 channels.....

I dont think a os 26 is good for 3d but I guess you could try. I have two on a hobbico Twinstar and it flies pretty good. It just isnt aerobatic.

If the plane is light enough any engine could do 3d. Do not need 3d, just looking for suitable frames for this engine.
