Hey has anyone put together a 120 size Cmp Giles yet? I've ordered one and i know i can use a cermark spe 26 on it but for about 1.3 pounds more i can put a crrrc 45 engine i have on it. Any thoughts? Too much weight? Don't worry about offending me but i will explane my logic in that i have a Great Planes 202 with a Q45 on it and it does everything extremely well and as far as i can tell has NO bad habbits.It also almost exactly matches up in wing area etc. and the Quadra weighs alot more. Thanks

Helo, I had (crashed it) a CMP giles 120. I had the brillelli 26 on it. It flew beautifully but could deffinetely use some extra power for climbs. A 30+cc would be ideal for this plane and should give you all the power you'll ever need. The CMP Giles 120 is an excellent choice!

Thanks very much for the advise.I'll probably look seriously at the CRRC 45 that i already have in another plane.I'ts not real heavy but should provide plenty of power. Did you or are you experiancing any probs. or thrills with this plane.Thanks
