i have a old osgp .40 bushing engine that needs a home. any ideas? im open to anyplane design/style, even spads
i was looking at the tower profile 51 or tower uproar ormaybe an escapad? i would like to have enough power for some aerobatics (dont want avery underpowered airplane)
under $100 for the airframe (kits are fine as well, just keep it close to 100 w/ covering/ect)</p>

put it in a .25 size plane

lol i stick it in a mojo .25 and try to learn 3d on that. if i can see the plane

I mounted a .46LA in a modeltech funfighter P-51. it's now onw of my favorite planes(I say that about anything new I get )

corostang dude! 

I'd suggest a small .40 sized fun fly, like a Dazzler, Uproar, Fun 51 or Modeltech Magic.

Check out the Phoenix Models Dolphin 40.  $100.00, flies great.

A Big Stick. But seriously, any mid-wing with appropriate size requirements would give you the flight you're looking for.

Keep your head up on a swivel.

i bought the tower fun 51, because it was cheap, flies well (aparently), and now that im on summer vacation i have plenty of free time to build a kit. and looks easy to cover (i want to try doing some graphic designs on it) </p>

also tower says its in "limited stock", i have figured out that when a kit is in limited stock it means (sometimes not always) they are about to discontinue it.</p>

 i was going to get the proflie p-38 twin, but they discontinued it  [] (i was waiting for the magnum 30 4 stroke to go on sale at hoppypeople.)</p>

i wont build a kit that is ARF'ed. no sense in wasteing build time on something that i can just buy, their are too many good kits that i would never get to try if i spent my time building kits that are also arf's</p>

i tested out that engine (has an airbleed carb) and it works fine. not overly powerful but it will work</p>

Really, the escapade isn't bad and it shouldn't be underpowered, one guy ripped the wings off in a dive with a 46 ax in the nose, so the 40 should be good for it, the GP cherokee is good but if you want to venture into 3d, yes, find a 25 sized 3d machine and stick it in there, if you want a decent flying plane that teaches you power management but flies crisp clean lines, get the GP extra kit or US40 kit. If you want a comprimise, get the ne GP extra in the 55 inch size, but that is outside your price point, so I vote the escapade then the extra, then the US40. But that is just my flying preferences.

one of my favorite planes is the Gizmo from D&amp;L Designs, I have one with a 46AX and its a blast to fly, I built the tail with large counter balanced control surfaces and boxed the ailerons it will do just about anything you can throw at it.

I also have a kit for sale in the classifieds
