Default RE: Great Planes 25% Yak 81" 12-lb, seen on Fly3D Magazine

I’m ready to buy my engine (yes ... really) .

I’ve decided to spend the extra bucks and go ahead and get the DA-50 with Slimline rear-dump muffler. From what I’ve read in this thread, I’ll get it with the 3 inch stand-offs. Chief Aircraft looks like a good place to order it from.

What else should I buy on this initial order? What would be a good entry level 22x8 prop. to buy for this engine on the Yak?

I have a drill press for drilling the props. They have a drill jig guide for $28 … do I need that? Or, do you just use the prop. washer to mark it, and then drill it alone?

Thanks for all the help so far ... my first gasser should turn out nice.
