Default Top Flight F4U Corsair engine???

Hi all,

I've got a pretty ambitous idea about powering my T.F. Corsair I'm afraid [:-]. It`s not the giant scale model but the normal Gold Edition kit. I wonder if it is possible at all to fit a FA170R3 Saito radial in this model? Or am I way out of line with this engine-configuration? The thing is that I would like to have a suitable engine in this Corsair or even a bit more. First the FA90R3 crossed my mind but with it's 0.95 HP it obviously not powerful enough so I'd thought to go for the FA170R3.... possible or stupid?? [sm=confused.gif]

Thanks!
