Hello Ms. Cross. It's nice to have you here to answer our questions! Thanks for participating.

I bought a 1/4-scale Great Planes Giles 202 a while back, and will be assembling it soon (or maybe I should say "eventually"; too many projects!).

I have a new-in-the-box ST2000 and a J'Tec Pitts muffler for it. I also have a Perry pump and pump carb for the engine.

1) Do you think this engine is too heavy for the Giles?

2) Should I start off using the Perry pump and carb, or do you think I would be OK using the stock carb and no pump?

Thanks for your advice.
