I have on OS 46LA looking for a plane to put it in. I realize this is a pretty weak intro engine, but was wondering how it would do in a plane designed for a .32 - the Tribute 32 from Hangar 9 for instance. Any thoughts?

I have an Evolution 46 on a 40 size twist and it will pull out of a hover. Hover is about 2/3 throttle. You will not have monster 3D power but it is a fun plane!!

cowboy:

A Swany "Mojo" would fly just fine on that motor, but think you would have to build it. Had to build mine about 3 years ago, but its still flying and in one piece powered by a YS 63. Yes, lots of power, but also a lot more weight than the OS 46. ENJOY

It would do GREAT on a Tribute. I had a 46AX in mine, and it was really hard to balance the darn thing. It had GOBLOADS of power. The 46LA has as much power as a good 40, and probably less weight. The Tribute flies pretty well, builds pretty quick, and is a lot of fun. I have one in my attic waiting to be repaired. If it weren't such a pain to repair the spot that I broke it at, I would've crashed it another 5 times by now.

Word from the wise: do not attempt a "forced" elevator landing (it fell out of a hover onto its wheels and broke right in front of the gear. there's like NO wood to glue back on to).
