What is the wingspan? I am building a SR2 Cap 232 ( European model)
Its wingspan is 73" It is for a 160 size it says its flying weight should be 13.25 pounds
I am going to put a Quadra 35 cc motor on it. It will be a heavy engine for the plane
but it should have plenty of power. It weighs 4.25 Lbs with prop and muffler.
Are you going to want to do all kind of stunt flying or are you like me and
just want to start with calmer manuvers Loops,Rolls etc but nothing crazy.
What is the weight of the Blackhorse ? Do you own the Zenoah now?
Or are you thinkingof buying one?

RE: blackhorse cap 232 180 size
Following the success of one in my club with a Quadra 52, I am about to finish an 81 inch Blackhorse CAP. It as a G45 up front. I am not too sure about the reccommended Cof G though. The manual says 150 - 160mm. That is almost half of the wing span at the root so I will check wit the importer!!! Very nice kit though, well built and covered.
