Hi Gang,

I'm in the framing stages of a Hostetler Gee Bee Z - 29% model. It has an 82" ws and should come in about 20-23 lbs.

What size and type of engine would you recommend? I made a few mods to lighten it up so I'm a little concerned about vibration. I'm probably more concerned about reliability as I understand the plane glides like a manhole cover.

Thanks for your help.
