Default information for cap 232 with mds 148

A guy made a home made carb for the MDS 58, and it ran great. However, I would suggest a Moki 135 or an OS 160 for it, although the OS might be a little big.
Actually, the OS 160 can be considered too small for this airplane. This plane is normally tail heavy and requires a lot of additional weight in the nose if your powerplant comes in a around 2lbs. Most of the 120-size engines fit in this category. By the time you add your weight your looking at 12++ lb airplane.

Recommend Moki 180 or 210.
