Originally I have been interested in doing the gas/methanol glow treatment to the engine. Would this be fool hearted? I figure it would weigh less, and be easier to goof with. I guess that I will be giving Whacker engines a call. I ahve no percision metal working tools (hammer and dremel)

What thrust could I expect form the 14cc? I am not expecting much as I read all of the archives that I could find on it. I am wondering if I can use it succesfully on a minimalist aircraft built very light. Basically a pole, wing and tail surfaces. If not, maybe I can mount it on a boogie board and make an RC swamp boat out of it?

Thanks for all of your help!
