An O.S. .40 4 cycl. will pull that plane around nicely at half power once it's flying. You can fly for nearly 3/4 of an hour with a 12 OZ. tank.

FWIW, You'll get some people to recommend you stuff the biggest engine you can in it, so you can "Get Out Of Trouble" if need be. I laugh every time I hear this.
