Default Black Horse Cap 232 engine choice help

Heey Fellas

Havent yet posted in an airplane section on RCU but the guys in the heli department are very useful, and im sure you are too

Ive purchased a Black Horse Cap 232 ARTF plane, in the instructions it says reccomended engine would be a 40.-53. two stroke

could i fit a .70 four stroke, for example an OS FS-70 II ???

Crazy - of course the plane can fit a 4C in the 70 sized class. It flies nice on a 46 2C even.

Default RE: Black Horse Cap 232 engine choice help

I have recently bought a Black horse CAP 232 ARTF 81 inch span model. I have fitted a 50cc gas engine, everything has gone well so far. My problem is that there are no instructions to advice on engine side thrust. The engine mounts supplied for an OS 35cc glow motor would suggest about a degree of right side thrust, also the cowl front where it lines up with the spinner would suggest the same. I have set up my engine to fit the cowl and hoping the side thrust is correct.
Anyone out there any suggestions?
