I have a Homelite 30 on a Bridi Stick or Old timer. I forget which? They are the same plane except for the label on the box. The Homelite takes it for a real whirl. there no problem with power.
The plane is broad in the rear fuselage which helps keep the tail vibration under control. Even though Joe Bridi built his for a ST 2500, the plane is a very ideal small gas engine plane. I originally had a early style G23 on it and it was a sick cow but the Homelite 30 woke it up.
