Default Have a .46 engine what plane to choose?
I bought a magnum .46 for my eagle 2 but now I hav no need for a trainer so i am going to build it so I can sell it. What speed plane should i buy for this motor. I currently fly 3d/pattern and helicopters.
Thanks

A Diamond Dust is probably the easiest and cheapest way to get some speed with that engine.
A Quickie 500 plane will move out pretty good too if you want a landing gear.

G.P. viper, or Lanier Predator. Both would work well with that engine, and should get you slightly over 100 mph.

I put a OS.46 on my DD and Whip, both flew well on them. Probably would work on a DC F20

A laser arrow is also nice. Just not as fast as the others mentioned.
