That is definitely sweet. But I think a lot of guys flying a Kadet LT-40 are thinking of a motor that will give good service and is economical. But I do like the idea. What size and make is that? The Kadet needs nose weight anyway.
The Magnum .52 is a rock solid engine. I get 25 minutes of flight time on the standard tank so, in the long run, its cheaper. I actually had to add 1 1/4oz of weight to the rear but that was because of the landing gear I installed. I would highly recommend beafing up the landing gear. No more nicked props and mo more bouncy bouncy. lol
