Help me choose an engine =)
 

Here are the specifications:

64" wingspan (shoulder wing)
700 sq. in. wing area
6.5 to 7.5 pounds
Calls for a .50-.75 two-cycle engine

I prefer O.S. or Y.S. engines. Also, I am looking to use the plane for precision aerobatics training: starting with sportsman and moving up. I want to use at least a 60 two cycle, would prefer a four-stroke, but what are your thoughts?


Thanks in advance!

The ones I would suggest aren't the brands you like. 4-C I would go saito 1.00. Two stroke I would go ST .90. A YS .91AC is a great engine. It would be great on the plane your wanting to do. But it's $100+ more than the Saito. If money is not a problem the YS four strokes are awsum.

Get a .72 Irvine (on sale at www.justengines.unseen.org) and you'll do what your heart desires
The irvine is a 2 stroke (long stroke) that swing big props and has incredible idle.
