(yes, i am talking about a grass edge cutter. sometimes there's a bunch of misunderstanding between different countries and their languages; even if it's still english.)
Yes, that is so true. What is called a whipper snapper is called a weed eater by someone else. And A weed eater is a weed whacker to another. I personally never heard of a whipper snapper except from angry older folks yelling at punk kids and calling them that.

I would say that mounting a weed eater engine would definitely require some custom fabrication, but I see no reason why I cannot be done.
As for their ability to power our RCs, I do not know. I am thinking the timing profile of your home weed eater/leafblower/chainsaw or whatever would not be powerful enough for the task.
