Twin and multi cylinder engines for our models are heavy in comparison to an equivalent single. But since your 1/4 scale Fokker will need nose weight anyway the Saito FA-300T of FA-300TTDP should work nicely.

These engines can be a bear to set up, but once right either will please you.

I just made a post on the adjustment of the FA-300TTDP [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_3306814/anchors_3438672/mpage_19/key_/anchor/tm.htm#3438672]here[/link], a lot of it applies equally to the single carb version. Ignore the part about double fuel feeds and the pressure system.

After checking out his site I figured the same as you. This bird will need a bit of nose weight. I've always wanted a twin and I thought to myself, that'll ad the weight and get me closer to a scale size in the prop.
