I also think that the 4 stroke sounds much better and Saito sure makes rock solid engines. They are a bit pricey $640 for the FG30. I also like the idea of reserve power, but I am still curious to know if the FG21 would do on this plane w/ floats since cannonball200 stated that he has plenty of power?

Have you flown this with floats?

I searched for this engine and found them going for $940 (Chiefaircraft & Tower). Where did you see this at $450? I am leaning to gas anyway, but was curious about the engine.

I also found a Mintor 33 engine at Chiefaircraft at $325. This is a beautifully made engine, 2.0 cu-in 33.6 oz, using a reed valve. The recomended prop is 19". Does anyone know about these engines?
