Default RE: spe 26cc problems

Having enough power IMO is more a safety issue than anything else. I can barely catch a day to fly when the winds are below 10 mph with some gust. The extra power in this situation is definitly needed because a ten pound plane being blow around by 15 mph winds is no longer 10 pounds. It is 10 pounds plus what ever the force of wind adds. So thats why I ask is the 1:1 ratio set worth doing.

I did plan on doing 3d with the plane I am putting the BCMA engine in , but it isn't important if I can't because I don't know how to 3d at all.
