Forget the glow. Go with a DA 50 ( or any 50 CC gasser) and thank yourself later...

Would love to, but that will be next year's expense I wasn't thinking ahead and sold my G-62 with a pitts I had.. now the best I can do is either a Moki 1.8 (should fly it scale-like) or a Quadra 75xl (rip the wings off.. besides it's in my staudacher )

DA50 next year for it

I agree with the 1.8 being enough. I've seen one fly a few times and have been impressed with the plane. Like RCMike said it's not a 3d plane so the extra motor is really unnecessary. The 1.8 Moki fits very nicely in the cowl.

COOL!!! You guys made my day

This plane I'm looking to fly it pretty scale-like, and will be happy with it like that.. Like my avitar shows, I have my hovering machine there and my Staudacher has the guts to do the vertical anyway, so we're all set. Still going to get a da50 next year, but maybe for something else.. not sure yet
