Default RE: norvel engines

Hey ffkiwi thank you very much,youre info is very helpful altho i do not have a matched pair as i thought i had lol,one has 5 ports and the other has 3.so I guess its back to the drawing board so to say. I found a place that has norvel heads ill ck with them and see if they have a 3 or 5 port head,that should maybe fix my problem i hope.i hope the extra power will help because the engines are equiped with carbs and ill have to have a hitec hss 55 servo on each for throttle control,then 2 of the same on the wing for alerons and i think ill run a big servo on the elevator it can go in the nose along with my batt and reciever that should help out on my balance.
Do you think that the wing should be fully sheeted? i have sheeted the center section.Im worried if it will be strong enough. The fuselage has 1 wrap of 1/2 oz epoxy glass cloth and will be painted,should i do this to the wing,or just the center or should i leave it off the wing? thanks Billy
