Default Most power least hassle conversion
I'm leaning towards Homelite 45 for that one... helicool.
Drop the saw out of the motor, bolt on a prop hub...
and optional 25 dollar muffler and go...

About 22-25lbs thrust from a 22x8 prop..
Think the motor is right around 4 lbs stock mag/flywheel, but makes up for it in the THRUST department.

HighFlights!
