They are in stock and mine is on the way. I've been flying Helicopters for the most part the last three years but this plane has me all excited about flying airplanes again. Now I need to decide on an engine. I'm thinking about an OS 1.20 pump, YS 1.40 sport, or a Enya 1.55. It will be mounted inverted. I've been leaning towards the Enya but not sure how well she idles without constant glow heat at low RPMs. I could put an onboard glow igniter on her but would rather not if I can get away with it.

When you get it, could you measure the cowl diameter, please? I'm thinking of getting one of these, but would like to go with a gas engine, and want to see what may fit without cutting holes.
