RE: small engine?
dieFluggeister;
Your description is correct, and I consider this a powered glider type of flying model. The carnad's front wing is quite large, so it really helps in the lift area, and it is a clark-y airfoil, so it should fly quite well. I built it to haul a digital camera setup.
I will update this perhaps in it's own thread, I did not intend to steal panzertank's thread here, but thought it would add to this post he started here. Thanks!
