I was wondering the same thing. I would really like to try this with a 25 or so glow motor. Anyone tried it yet?

25 would be overkill, this thing is superlite. You will need to replace the landing gear mount and gear, they are the Achilles of this plane.

I have a mini 3D with a 25 FP on it and it is great and it is a super light plane as well. I think it wold work well on one of these. I need to find one and give it a try.

i guess the other post for the rogue is strictly electric, no comments from them. anyway, i built mine with a magnum 30 four stroke and even with that engine i still needed the battery pack up on the firewall. sneaking in the gas tank was fun but effective. the magnum flies this unit well with a 9x6 prop but no quite in a hover,,,,,,,,,,the 10x4 prop flies it well but boggs the engine. maybe 20% nitro is next.
maybe the 25 two stoke would do the trick, any one try one yet

I have an old OS 28 That I am going to try in this thing as soon as I save up a few bucks. It is the same size as a 25 just stroked out a bit. I was wondering what servos and reciever did you use in yours. I need to know what Ineed to get as far as electroonics to fly this bird well.

The landing gear is WEAK!! make it stronger before you fly!!

i use HS-55 servos, a 600 mAh hitec battery pack and an Jeti Rex 7 MPD receiver... it works great! right now i'm converting to a OS .25 engine.... interesting to see the difference!
