Default Morris the Knife

Does a four stroke on the knife need a remote glow hook up, or will the igniter reach the plug and not hit the wing?

I have a knife with an MVVS 45 2 stroke and a number of 4 strokes. They should all work well with no need for extra glow hook-ups. This profile is wide open around the engine from any conventional angle.
What engine do you plan on using? The Enya has a forward facing plug that needs a forward facing glow hook-up or you might end up in the prop. All others should work well.

Saito 72. Was thinking it might be like the Burrito and need a remote glow, would hate to have to use a two stroke on it.

You will have more than enough power and then some. I cannot think of any mounting and operating problems. The engine might be overkill in size and weight?

The Burrito does not need remote glow with a 4 stroke.
