You should repost this in the glow motor forum as the engines you are asking about are .91 cubic inch to 1.20 cubic inch four cycle (4C) glow engines... There are a lot of choices in this size from Saito O.S., Magnum, Enya, Thunder Tiger...

Hopefully you know how to fly radio controlled planes. If you don't your FW-190 is unlikely to last very long... You seem eager, but not knowing the nomenclature used for common glow engines is worrisome...

I moved this thread from the Gas forums to over here.

You ought to take note of Galens advice. If you don't know the difference between a glow engine and a gas engine--it makes us believe you don;t have a lot of experience. If you new to RC airplanes and you tackle an FW190 for your first one--you'll be lucky to fly it for more than about 5 seconds before it crashes.

This ought to be a very short but interesting thread. A very neat airplane but not for beginners, which I suspect you are. Spend your money on something a little tamer. Post on the beginners forum and you will receive all the advice you need to make the right decision on which airplane to buy. Remember, we all have to walk before we can run and the FW-190 is a runner's airplane.

Get a forty sized trainer with a .46 two cycle glow engine. When you have mastered the trainer then you may want to think about a bomb like 91 2C or 120 4C -- those are very powerful engines and not for beginners. I have been flying for six years now and do not think I have mastered the 40s yet.

Good luck and heed your advisers. If you are really hard over about those big engines do a web search on Saito, Mangnum, ThunderTiger and OS. That will get you tons of information.

Cheers,
