Honestly , if I were younger and had more energy to devote to such a project , I'd go for one of those 7 or 9 cylinder radial engines in any accomodating airframe that caught my eye . I , like porcia83 , have more RC model plane equipment than I'll ever use in two lifetimes . Even got a wankel it's just the radial that's missing from the collection . Wouldn't in the least matter what airplane , so long as the engine was plenty exposed so all could revel in it's multi cylinder glory

And as to the Vespa , it would have to be one of the older ones , two stroke , manual shift , with the handgrip that the clutch lever is on being also the gear selector (pull the handle for clutch and twist the handgrip to select gears) . That was the first Vespa I ever drove myself , it was a 1950s model I think ....
