You know what?
In a way there is. The Zenoah G20 is a 60 size gas engine.
I am not sure but I bet it would work on a 60 size trainer.

Since you can't get nitro fuel perhaps, if you can afford it, this could be a way to go.
I'm not familiar with Zenoah but I would assume that G20 would be for a 20cc engine where as a .61 engine is 10cc...Rog
Yes indeed, it is a 20cc engine. With battery powered electronic ignition, it doesn't have the weight of a flywheel magneto so it's pretty light for a gasser. Still, the only .60 size plane that I would consider it in is one that needs a lot of nose weight to balance. Someone at our field flys one and he's pretty happy with it so far.
