Default brison 2.4?

I just lost my g 62 to a crash (RX failed). resulting in a very bad bent crank, and other major damage. $225 worth of parts to repair it.

Anyway i was wornder if a brison 2.4 would hover a 16lbs plane and pull out with authority.

I am scratch building a 80 in (1440 sqin wing) aerobatic/sport type plane estimated weight 16 or under. I have had experience with ryobi 31cc engines and homelite 45cc engines. The ryobis are weak and will not hover a 14lbs plane while the homey45 wouold hover a 16lbs bipe and pull out.

In a word, NO
You may want to try the Brison 3.2

Ditto, and with a decent prop, the 3.2 Brison will do the job quite well!

Thanks guys
How does the 3.2 compare with the G62 in power?

They are pretty close to the same, but the Brison 3.2 has a mid range most G-62 owners would kill for. The G-62 has just very slightly more overall power, but with a weight penalty and the lack of a solid mid range makes hovering somewhat more difficult.

RCIGN-1 could set you up with a G-62 that would blow our doors off, but I don't know what the cost would be.

I have owned both engines and a G62 will pull the carb off a 3.2 brison, have also owned a few brison 2.4's with the right prop its very strong but the 3.2 is a better bet for your set up.

I have also owned both, G62 and Brison 3.2, I do not have any Zenoha engens in my hanger anylonger.
Brisons, (2 ea. 3.2s'), (one 4.2,) , (one 5.8)
ZDZs one 100 and two 80s.
My vote- Brison 3.2
