Why not.
At another forum, somebody turned a Jumping Jack electric into a biplane and called it "Jumpin' Jim ".

I have seen one on here before, it looked pretty nice. I cant seem to locate it right now, maybe someone else will have better luck.

As I recall, about 3 years ago one of my readers contributed some photos that I published of his 4* bipe. Seems that he did both a 4*40 & a 4*60. When I get home this evening, I'll search in my old drafts and see if I can find the photos and his name/e-mail. The e-mail may have changed in this time, but it'll get you in the ball park. Both used the next size larger engine.

A 4*60 bipe would be big. Since the stock plane cries for a .91, a 1.20 4-Stroke minimum or maybe something like a ST 2300, 1.60FX or a gas engine would be great.
