Default RE: Great Planes Curtiss Hawk? Engine
I'm kinda new at this, but wouldn't a G-26, or any other gas engine for that matter, be alot of extra weight on the airframe and landing gear? I mean, the ARF calls for a 1.20 max and there are guys on here building them with G-38's??
Someone please help me decide what to use. I want to go gas, but 20 some extra ounces on the nose seems like a lot.
