Poulan with Header/Muffler

This is my first conversion attempt, and a primary factor in the design of the entire plane is to keep costs low.

Gutterpipe fuselage
Coroplast wing
Homemade landing gear
WeedEater® engine
home-made muffler (eventually - still in progress)

Over 95% of this plane was purchased from the NEW LHS (Local Hardware Store). Only the fuel tanks, Tygon and radio equipment is through normal RC sources.

When I do another, I'll probably do electronic ignition. I have to learn to crawl before I start running. Anyone got plans for a homemade electronic ignition system?
