Gasoline Leaf Blower conversion.
 
I noticed Sears has a Craftsman 25cc gasoline blower/vac on sale for $100. Anyone converted one of these to R/C use? How heavy is it? What prop are you swinging? Do your think it would pull a 12 pound (dry and with current engine) airplane vertical?

Thanks,

You could always go to Lowes or Home Depot and get a Homelite head unit for a weedeater for only $60.00 ( same size - 25 CC ) [8D], and the conversion would be easier

$60? Oooooooh :D

But how heavy is it and would it 3D my 12 pound airplane?
