Though the Stihl 015 makes good power for its displacement . . .

You are going to need to shed half its weight as shown to use it as a airplane engine.

All the extra material in the bottom bearing cap needs to be removed.

The prop hub needs to be changed from steel to aluminum.

Possibly change it over to RCEXL style ignition to save weight.
