I am building the Aeroworks Extra 300 Profile and am thinking about putting a gas engine on it.
Does anybody have and engine recommendations and engine mounting tips?
What are the cons to gas power.
I have noticed most gas engines are set up to mount to a fire wall and I have no clue how to get around this.
Thanks,
Dean

Use the RCS 1.40!!
www.rcshowcase.com
Swings a 17x6 prop.
Fits the same mount as stock profile.
I have the Aeroworks Profile started...
Only mod to the engine mount was to cut back a little more for the rear carb. But that just works out as a benefit cause now you have SHORTER control rod for the throttle.
The RCS is a super little engine....and uses a small 8 oz tank for 20-30 min flights!!
Cheap fun...and strong enough to verticle the 10 lb profile.....keep the construction light and have fun!!!
High Flights.
