Great flying plane, I have an OS 65 ax on mine and it has plenty of power, may not rocket ship vertical but she will tractor on up until I kick her over.
An OS 65 is about a 10cc engine. That is way underpowered for a plane that has a recommended 30 to 35cc range. I would think with the OS65 the performance would be very enemic at best.
