Default RE: Hangar-9 Sopwith Camel Build Thread

I agree! Thanks very much for doing this, MinnFlyer. The reason I'm here is because I want a biplane, but I want a gas engine in it for the sound and hopefully less mess than glow. Nothing against those that are using glow power. I've flown glow a lot and loved my Saito .82 and many fine OS 2-strokes, but am currently flying all electric. Nothing against those that are doing electric in this plane either, I'm definitely a fan of electric power, but I just think the sound of a gas engine would make a big difference to me in a plane like this. I've never flown gas so a thread like this is very interesting to me. I haven't found any other planes of this type and size that will work with a gas engine so this is really tempting me. Still holding out for a Stearman or Waco... (for now)
