jents I have some thing I might be able to contribute to the PIF dealy. When I first got my LT-40 I put a TT 42-gp in it. it was not a lot of power for a big hoss like the lt so I thought I would replace it with a more power full motor, I bought a OS la-46 engine and plane has a smiggen more power now [:@][:'(]. any ways the .42 gp is now sitting in a zip lock with after run oil in it not being used. I plan to buy a BB remote needle valve motor for my 2nd plane and was thinking of some thing to do with the gp. can any one put this engine to good use in a trainer?? it is low on power but is in the right range for a .40 sized trainer. the engine has been taken care of and I will not lie it has been in 2 crashes. still runs with good steady idle and no vibration so nothing apears to have been bent and will start immediatly with proper primeing.
it would pull a nextstar or tower trainer really good. any takers? id practically give it away, even got a engine sized box for shiping.
