Chuckw,
The Hog Bipe just begs to have a 4-stroke in it (I have an OS 91 Surpass in mine). I'm sorry, but the Sig Pig just doesn't sound right with a 2-stroke engine in it.

I guess I can kinda see what you mean. A biplane does tend to match that low pitch 4-stroke sound. It's like seeing a nice warbird with a 2-stroke. It flys nice but something just isn't right. I'll give it some thought. The OS AX series has been very good to me so it's not easy choosing something else. Those Saito rocker covers sure look nice though.

For some reason my kit shipped from Tower's IL warehouse instead of Reno so it will take a few more days to arrive. The SS plans from RCM were waiting for me on the porch when I got home today though.
