ORIGINAL: MSS999
The engine weighs 5lb 5Oz on my simple kitchen scale. It will eventually go into a WW1 Eindecker lookalike by Flair Models in the UK. Wingspan will be 100inches, Wing area 1700Sq inches, total weight around 16lb.
The plane is called the Hannibal and is described on the follwoing URL but mine will have the wingspan increased to 100 inches.

I just bought one off eBay for $49.95. I'm thinking about mounting it in Bridi's Old Timer (I think that is the name of it).
Don't know if I'll farm out the conversion, or try to do it myself. Don't know if my lathe and mill combo are large enough to accomodate it.
Does this engine use premix? I take it it doesn't because you can't mount it inverted...
