Default O.S. 25FX and O.S. 25SF

I have two questions related to O.S. engines:

1. Is the O.S. 25FX engine much quieter than the older O.S. 25SF?

2. I am building a small version of the Stik aircraft. What should the approximate weight be if I use an O.S. 10FP engine?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Brian,

Noise depends entirely on the muffling system and the propeller used. We'd not think that there'd be much difference in noise between the two engines if you prop them the same.

As far as model weight is concerned, you'll want to stay below 3 pounds or so if you're using a .10-size engine, although lighter is better.
