Go with the converted saw engines whether it be Homelites or Poulans. There cheaper & are a blast on sticks. A friend has the Bridie Big Bee with a 33cc Homey from RS Engines & it flys great!!

I could reccomend the Ryobi conversion. Good torque and cheap to obtain. check out my testimonial at www.jagengines.com.

No such thing!!!! But with a weight of 9lbs on the airframe and 1311 inches of wing area, my personal choice would be an RCS 140 for great performance and economy.
