Default RE: Heaviest WWII Warbird flown with a G62?

Looking very, very good! I am eager to get mine ready by mid summer i hope..

I picked the G62 for several reasons. Other members of our club used them and are very happy. They have a good rep. The extra weight is ok because most warbirds with glass covering and paint and full cockpit/ pilot/ scale details , etc. will need wieght up front no matter how much you move radio gear forward. Magneto ignition= no battery to worry about. Easy to get parts for. They are not dogs, they put out good power. Price is fair. Quality is very good, they seem to last well.

Starting can be a pain, but I have seen the spring starter in action, and it seems to havesolved that problem.

I expect my plane to be around 30 lb. From what I have see and read, i will be good to go.
