ORIGINAL: rc-plane

I was trying to find a good engine match for this plane also. At first I wanted the DA 50 but now I dont know. If I dont get the DA then I was looking at the brillile (SP?) or the evolution. What do you think will be better?

Personally a DA 50 is overkill on this plane.

I would be looking at the Brillelli 46 as that would be more than enough power. Evolution is good too... but they are costly and require a pipe to come alive. If you got one without doing a pipe thats just a waste of money IMHO.

Brillelli also has a 50 that is as strong as a DA but $495 with muffler.. so almost 200 cheaper. However I would probably stick with teh 46 at $375 it will have more than enough power and save you money.
