Oh man!!

Great that I have found this newly started thread.
The other thread of 192 pages was just mind boggling.
Thanks again for starting this thread on the 15cc.

I think a pair of these engines would be ideal in the Top Flite B-25 Bomber. I fly twins and multi engine planes and the glow exhaust residue on my C-130 is....well, you know. 4 times slug-gier like an oil tanker.

So, what do you guys think? I fly scale speeds. The B-25 takes .55's 2 stroke glow or .72's 4 strokes.

Thanks,

Gunny
Absolutley a reasonable choice for that
Ok -

They will be a little heavier than the glows suggested but that plane wil easily deal with that increase in the wing loading.
You will have more throttle stick movement to fly with - even full throttle wil give you a good scale speed (which wil make your flying look much better too)
Will have the advantages of small Gas - reliability and Cleaner running.

This is one of the applications where I do endorse these engines as the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.
