Let's not forget...it's a telemaster. A big one, to be sure, but it's still a telemaster, and thus has a wing loading of something like .4 nano-ounces per square mile. The thing would, quite seriously, probably fly with a .90 in the nose for cryin out loud.

I have seen one with an OS 1.60 in the nose, though I did not see it fly that day (radio problems unrelated to the plane). The builder, however, claimed to have over 50 flights on it, and said the 1.60 pulled it along just fine...couldn't really DO anything with it, but then again, it's a Telemaster, so hey.
