Hi Guys,I am still looking for a reason to buy another radial(aren't we all), and I hope I might have found it.Just purchased a Great Planes Waco from Tower Hobbies,and I was once again thinking about the EVO 35cc radial,as it will fit in the cowl.The plane should weigh in at about 14. 5 pounds.While it certainly would not be overpowered,does anyone have any ideas on whether it would have enough power to fly in a scale like manner ?

I was thinking of doing the same. I know it has been flown with an OS FT 160 (twin cylinder 4 stroke) which should be similar in power. It is also flying the Great Planes PT-17 military Stearman which is an even better candidate.
