It would just be a simple fun flyer for me and maybe hand the controls over to others now and then. I bought another Chinese made model from another company that looked a little like this one and it was so bad I sent it back. Was hoping for input from some one who knew first hand. Thanks.. I see that one in the swap section/with "no" shipping. Brian

There is one of these for sale locally in my area here on RCU and I have contacted the seller to try and entice him toward my bid. I am still waiting but I am patient
Anyway, I was concidering power optons for the model as well and after having run in an SV-17 for a freind I have no doubt that that would be powerfull enough to fly the plane itself. A DLE-20 would be plenty since it has been compaired about equally to the CRRC/RCGF?etc. 26cc engines. My personnal choice would be a DLE-30 because of what I want to use the plane for. The smaller engines may be less spirited and require a bit more runway especially if you intend to put any kind of payload on the plane. My plan is to use one to piggy back or more accurately belly carry an EFlight BAE Hawk EDF to altitude to be released. The Hawk simply will not get off the ground by itself on my grass runway. Of course this would require a trusted second pilot. So for your engine choice, what is your intended use for the plane?
