My modeling history is all kit built planes. they all stress not to use bigger power plants and if the plan has 7 inches to back of prop from firewall thats what it must be to perform properly and so on and so on....after calling ziroli and was told no problen in moving firewall or just go with longer engine and seeing videos of planes hopping of the ground at take-off due to big radials in front it now seems the old rules have gone out the window. Imnew at giant scale and new at building without instructions and as I couldnt find a full kit for stearman in size needed i am trying this ziroli plan with wood from national balsa, selected for it weight. I guess the worker at ziroli has me doubting my selection. check answering machine.
