Default Motor size question

A flat-bottom wing on a trainer like that doesn't exactly need a whole lot of power to fly. A friend used to fly a 52" Cub on an OS .10fp. You won't have the power to go vertical, but then again it's a trainer and not designed for that to begin with. Use a 12x4 or 11x5 prop, and you should be fine.
