Venture Flyer,

Your choices on the electronics I fell are good ones, but I would use a Brillelli 40GT on this plane. It is special made just for aircraft and the cost is only $325.00 plus shipping. It has CH EI and spins a APC 18x10 prop at 7700 RPM brand new. After break-in it should be over 8000 RPM with that same prop. I have a Giles-202 that is very close to the same size as yours Suhkoi and I am putting a Brillelli 40GT on it. It weighed 12lbs with a Brillelli 25GT engine in it. The 40GT weighs only 8 oz more. So with only 8oz of added weight I get another 10lbs of thrust. That will make a big difference.

You can take a good look at these fine engines at www.brillelli.com Thier customer support is the best you well ever get. You can even talk to them on the weekends for help if you need it. I have talked to Scott at Brillelli while I was at the field having engine trouble. Scott was very helpful and answered my questions. You will not get customer support from other company's like that
