I have a Rascal 40 with an OS 46FX in it. I am presently using Byron 10% fuel and a MAS 11x5 prop.

This plane will fly VERY slow if you want it to. The plane is also a "floater". The plane will also fly relatively fast, however, there are other sport planes that will fly faster.

In the glow version, if you turned the throws down, you could use this as a trainer. The plane is stable, yet at the same time you can knife edge it all day long if you want.

The ONLY negative I have found with the plane is the "floating". I have my engine idle as low as I can get it (about 1,900 rpm), yet landing it I will cross on to the field at 2' off the ground and if the wind is less than 5 mph I will still be 6" off the ground 400' down the runway. On low/no wind days I have to kill the engine to land.

If you want to convert the plane to electric power, go to Ezone http://www.ezonemag.com/
and look in the sport flying forum. There are many conversion "how to" there.
