Default DA 50 static thrust figures

Im in the process of deciding on what equipment I'm going to have to buy to build up an 80+ in 3D capable aircraft. The engine I'm currently leaning towards is the DA50, but I'm wondering... Does anyone have a thrust figure in terms of pounds? I'm thinking about a 16-17 lb aircraft and I want it to hover somewherres between 25-50% of max power... I've done a number of internet searches and I just cant find any thrust figures on this engine at all... Anyone care to enlighten me with some information?

IN addition, if anyone cars to suggest a different engine for a 16-17lb 3D capable machine... feel free, I'm really unaware in terms of what is availible in gas.
