I went over your build thread and you are definitly a master modeller. It would be painful for me to sell a plane like that. It is true, a 30 pound warbird like and FW 190 is a lot for that engine to fly. Recall my corsair is 10 pounds lighter! -Tom
Thanks for the compliments. I had my doubts the engine would pull the plane, but i had seen another on youtube with the same engine that was 5lbs heavier and it seemed to fly the model fairly well. While i do hate to part with the model, I would rather sell it to finish a more important project (scratch built F-14D Tomcat). This engine would do great on a low to mid 20 lb airframe, which is why i'm looking into doing a Gee-Bee for it, if the 190 sells w/o the engine
