Default RE: EVO 26 cc engines: opinions

Dick,

In your opinion, does the EVO26 have the power to hover a 10lb plane with plenty of reserve for pullout? I've already ordered a Brillelli 40gt for my 140 Giles 202, but the airframe is cheap enough that I wouldn't mind ordering 2 since I have an EVO26. The specs say 10.24lbs so it'd be really close to 10lbs I think.

I also have a Showtime w/a Saito 125 and an APC 17X4W prop. Do you have an idea for a better prop for 3D in the Showtime?

I still can't make up my mind of whether to stick the EVO on the Showtime to get it to gas, buy another Giles or a similar size for the EVO, or build the CMP 120 size Zero with a 26 in it.....decisions, decisions.
