I am putting a MVVS 1.6 in mine. You guys are right that this will not hover the plane at anything less than full throttle. I do have the 3rd generation version with the new coated piston and new ignition so, we'll se how she flys. I only want to practice IMAC maneuvers anyway, so anything more than that is a plus.

Neat site of a guy that put a MVVS 1.6 in a H9 Cap
