Default RE: U-Can-Do 3d 46?

Ok guys, I got a Rossi .45 which is suppose to have 2.1 hp. With a 12.25 X 3.75 prop, will this be enough to hover the UCD?

Here's the plan:

mount the engine right side up to prevent the fuel from siphoning out (a hole in the top of
the cowl won't be all that bad)

cut a hole to mount the right elevator servo higher so the control horn is down to eliminate using a servo reverser.

mount the 90 oz pull-pull rudder servo on the under side right behind the wing for the CG problem.

fiberglass the landing gear

install tall wires (lines)

use 4-40 rods

Any other suggestions?
