Thanks, Craig,
That sounds reasonable. My old Hangar 9 Corsair had 120 - 135 mm (4.5 - 5.3 in) with a wingspan of only 2.17 m (85.5 in). I was hoping for more since the TopRC Corsair seems to be very tail heavy. I am planning to mount a Moki S180 on it and it looks like I need to add additional nose weight even with this heavy engine. The natural fit is a Saito FG-90 or the UMS 7-90 mentioned above. However, those engines will require even more nose weight. The UMS 9-115 or the UMS 5-125 could also fit under the cowl.
Best Regards,
