Default TT07 on an e-starter?

hi all,

i'm an electric flyer and i want to go glow. no experience in glow whatsoever.

i have a GWS e-starter which i hope to convert to glow. unfortunately, the smallest engine available here is a thunder tiger GP .074. (i'm in the philippines)

please note that we only use castor oil and methanol here. nitro is too expensive.

QUESTIONS:

is it too much power for my plane? even at low throttle? i don't plan on doing verticals or any 3d on it.

is there a prop size i could use so i have more thrust instead of high speed? i want to maintain the plane's "parkflyer flight characteristics"
