RE: airplane for this engine
Go to Matney Models' website, and look at the Quarter Midget (.15) airframes, 3 to choose from. They are perfect for a hot RE .25 and they already go 125 with a hot .15. Lots of wing, crazy people have stuck .50's in them. These are short kits, foam cores and a nice glass fuse, but there's not much to these models anyways. Think about CF props in the 7x6 - 7x7 range and running at ducted fan rpm as it is made for and you have a smoking combo. Technically APC 7" props are good for it by the 190k/diameter in inches rule, but I'm not keen on it.
Got a pipe and header for it? If not see Macs Products.
