H9 Cap232 72" + G23
I like the look of the H9 Cap 72" but instead of running a glow engine I'd like to go to gas, simply for the $$ saving between the 2 fuels(+ 1hour drive to get glow fuel is annoying). Here in australia it seems pretty limited to the gas engines we can get, I have only found Zenoah, 3W and ZDZ. The later 2 are definately out of my price range.
Will a G23 give this aircraft enough power for decent performance, I'm not looking at doing 3D just aerobatic sequencies.

You should consider seriously the RCS 140. It has more power and is lighter than the Zenoah. Even with this engine, this aircraft may not 3D but it will have adequate power.

Hi
Take a look at the new zenoah G26, here in the uk glens models deals with zenoahs, it looks good. For that size of engine glow fuel is too expensive, I`m hoping to convert to Gas this year, keep the glow fuel for the small stuff, as for power with the G26 you will be accelerating vertically, so I`ve heard!
