Don,
Check out this website for inexpensive gas conversion engines and information on interference issues. He has an 18cc and a 21cc on ebay right now for just over $100 each. I'm thinking the 18cc at about 3 lbs might be a great power plant. Also, on his site, there is an article about a 1/4 scale replica of the Merlin engine used in the P51 and Spitfire fighters. Pretty amazing.

Thanks,,, interesting site.
I am putting gas on the back burner for now. Looking around the shed at all my 4 strokes, finished planes, underway planes and planes that are to be started,,, I recently decided to not branch out anymore (at least for now). Hmmm, I forgot to mention that large helicopter on the shelf. My brother talked me into buying it last year. It was a super bargain but I can't fly helicopters (:-).
Regards
