Default RE: Scratch building 105" W/S Super connie L-1049 G

where are you getting your finished weight from?I built a 13/16 scale model from the same plans at 100" wing span weighed 18 pounds used four fox .25's your 1/14 model is not that much larger and the webra 25's have a lot more power than my fox 25's do.engine reliability is more important than over power.most scale multi engine planes fly at 3/4 to 1/2 power for scale speed.the flaps will help on landings as they do increase the wing area the way they deploy.
