I was just looking for a winter project and this plane caught my eye.
I believe what was being discussed was this kit by Great Planes (Electricfly SE5A)

I was thinking that it might be possible, keep it light and power with a PAW 1.49cc. Of course it depends on what you want out of flying, hot, fast and very aerobatic then the 1.49cc probably wouldn't work well but for prototypical like flying it might just be the ticket. A .15 size engine I think might be just on the large size. However I haven't actually seen the kit and with adding a firewall and bit of strengthing the front end, a .15 might be a better choice.
So, has anyone converted one to diesel or glo?
