How does the Enya .80 four stroke rank against the other .70-.80 four strokes? I picked one up at a swap shop, and looking to put it in a .40 sized plane. Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

I had one about ten years ago. It turned out to be a really strong, reliable engine. Being an Enya fan, I wasn't surprised.
The 80-4C is really a .74 and is built in a 60-4C frame. It is compact for the power it produces.
I mounted mine on a CGM Anniversary Cub that weighed over 7 lbs. I could perform climbing knife-edge flight and Immelmann right from a short take-off roll. That is one strong engine. Mine never quit until I made it quit.

Cool Ed,
I am ordering bearings for this one, just to bring it up to snuff. Will be my first foray into 4strokes. Was going to break down and buy a new surpass 70, but got this one for a song. I will still be able to buy bearings and a futaba 127 receiver, and have some $$ left over after this project for what I was prepared to pay for the surpass.
