I have what has to be classified as the worlds ugliest Stinger. Someone bought it at an auction last year, had buyers remorse, then put it for sale in the lobby where the auction was held for $20. Being a sucker for bargains, or just being a sucker, I purchased it. Structurally, it is in good shape, but ugly. This is my first gas airplane so I don't have an engine for it. Friends of mine told me I needed a G32 for it,but I think this is for a fully aerobatic flight. I priced them and decided not to fly it, but to recover it and sell it. When I measured out the covering I needed for it, I discovered it would cost more to cover it than I would make out of the sale. Then I decided again to fly it. My question is will the airplane fly (not 3D) with a 50 size engine? My feelings is that I will fly this aircraft until I get tired of it and then put the 50 on a different airplane. This will open up a lot of choices for airplanes for me to put the engine on. Also does anyone have the setup for the Lanier Stinger? Thanks

The regular Stinger was 72" or 80" wing span according to how it was built
They were a 120 airplane but a lot of them had small gas engines in the 25 to 33 cc range
Then there is the Giant Stinger that uses a G62 gas engine
There are also 60, 40, & 20 size Stingers
