Dead serious. They DO make them smaller. Look at the RCS website for SMALL gas engines.
www.rcshowcase.com
Smallest one is 22cc, about 1.4 ci. Including ignition, 2 pounds, 0.9 Kg.
Also, see the l'Essence construction article in the May '03 issue of RCM - just arrived by subscription, may not be on the stands yet. He is using the RCS 1.8 gas. The 1.8 is 55 ounces, right at your 1.5 Kg.
HTH
