Hey again! Im wondering if there is a list of engines that go great with 60 size, 9LB-12LB Aircraft
My experience is that 10 to 12 pound airplanes will require a .90 size engine. A 60-size airplane generally should not weigh 9 pounds. However a .75 will fly a 9-pound airplane. A 1.20 engine is usually used in 14 to 15 pound airplanes.
