Engine Combination Problems

Today the Engine and H9 Cessna Skylane came into the mail and somewhere along the line my dad contacted the technicians at Horizon Hobby and apparently they said that the BT-50SB is way to powerfull and heavy to be used on the plane. He picked this combination since the engine can also equip a electronic starter. Any comments will be greatly appriciated.

-Thanks

RE: Engine Combination Problems

max engine for that is a 38 cc, and that fuji engine isn't exactly known to be a light powerhouse either... A friend of mine is finishing up that plane, go with a nice big two or 4 stroke GLOW, not gas, you won't have to cut up the cowl, and for that plane that is an injustice, keep it locking as scale as possible.

RE: Engine Combination Problems

I have seen a few of these and they were all gassers. A 50cc is a bit much for this because this is not a racer. Whatever the case, strengthen that firewall inside and out.
