Hi Denny,
I'm glad that you are going to install the larger engine in the P-6E. I promise you will not be disappointed and you will have a lot of fun with it.


Nitro Wing,
You misunderstood me and I take full responsibility. We are talking about having fun in this hobby are we not??, for me it’s all about the fun factor. I never meant to imply that it was harder to fly with power. You are absolutely 100% correct, it’s a lot harder to fly an underpowered plane in scale fashion doing scale aerobatics. However, been there, done that, got the T-Shirt, let me tell you, it’s a lot of fun. I mean way more fun than a man should be allowed to have; flying scale models with a more thrust to weight engine installed, and be able to do (not that you must always do them), most of the 3D manoeuvres, with non 3D Bi-planes from WWI or WWII, with smoke on.

You can never have too much power, as you can always throttle back.
