I've got a CMPro 72" mosquito which is supposed to run .30 size FS, but I'm putting .52 FS on board (I've got a bit of work to do for the carbie to fit, but I'd prefer the FS sound. It can also take .25 -.45 2S without much trouble.

Hard to beat the Twinstar for a first twin project. I got one with 40 LA's and it scoots out real decent. Flys easy and quick. Spend most time around 1/3-1/2 throttle and get about 8-9 min flights on the stock tanks. Best part in your new to twins is it slows down and lands like a good trainer. Main gear first and then nose gear. Mine has over 140 flights on it this year and the cover trim is getting a touch ragged, but what the heck for $119.

I put a pair of OS 46 FX engines in my
Grumman F7F Tigercat. It is from the G and P company.
WAAAAy overpowered but FUN FUN FUN.
It has Robart gear, gear doors and a gyro on the rudder.
Sure flys great.
The kit is not so hot but the outcome was worth it!.
