Hog Bipe question
Hi,
I know it's probably best as a 3rd plane....but I've decided my first build is going to be a SIG Hog Bipe. I told my instructor that the consensus from a number of people on this site is "make it a 3rd plane" because of it's different flight characteristics. I was gonna to go with a Bruce Tharpe Venture 60, but after finding out from Bruce that it will be about 4 weeks or more before he produces any more, that I can't wait and my instructor said that I can handle the biplane. My question is, that after hearing about the Tower .75 being rather strong, would you consider this engine for the Bipe??? I'd rather put a 4 stoke in the Bipe, but money is a little tight now and for $ 99 the Tower .75 seems like a good performer (Yes I'm aware of it's potential air leeks) Let me know about the engine choice.......Thanx.
