Could I put a weed wacker motor in this plane, and if so what size would it have to be. I only have a 26.2 poulan engine, but would buy bigger if necessary. If my Poulan will not fit in here, what size plane would it power? Also, if this is not the right place to post this please let me know, Itried to search but came up short.

I would think the Poulan would be to big and heavy for this size of plane. They are calling for a 91 four stoke motor.

You might be able to cram it in there, but I think just the weight difference would be a problem.

Here they are using this 26cc for planes from 1.20 to 1.60 and the mustang is for a 60 to 90.
