Unknown Engine For Piper Cub
Was looking for an engine for the Hanger 9 ARF Cub, that I don't have to BUTCHER the cowl. 
Happened onto RCV. Their web site is www.rcvengines.com.
Has anyone experienced this "NEW"
design, and if so what do you think/advise??
The props are new to me but a 14x14?? The hype is that with the 2:1 gear reduction, larger Dia, then 2x, the pitch Fuel tank pressure Problem Starter Key problem
What do the experts say??

Good engine
I deny being an expert because x is an unknown quantity and a spurt is a drip under pressure. I have a RCV .90 and tank pressure is no problem, big prop no problem, APC 15 x 12.5 four blade, 5,000 rpm, starter wand, just take the lamest starter you have or can buy and take the aluminum cup off and fasten the wand on the bare shaft by tightening two socket head screws, use Hangar Nine Super plug for excellent idle. WildCat Premium Extra 10%. That's it.
