Default Help with choice of engine

Hi Guys

I would like to know which engine would be the most suitable one for the Senior Telemaster.
The engines I am looking at are

CRRC-Pro GF26i Aero Petrol Engine
Zenoah G20ei Aeroplane Petrol Engine
Fuji-Imvac BT34EI Aeroplane Petrol Engine

As I am a newbie I am not sure which engine to go for. This is my first petrol engine i am going to get and it is just for flying nice and gentle no acrobatics and eventually putting floats on the plane. which one would you recommend?

thanks for your time and effort

You have the Fuji on the list because it's relatively cheap and can be ordered from Tower. Drop it from the list.

Check out the MVVS 26 IFS SP at Pe's site

Pe's a very knowledgeable guy, and he's on your side of the pond.

snoopy5,

For me personally, I like the Zenoah engines. They have been around for ever and have proven themselves. Very reliable, easy to start, last forever.
