Okay, 214 cm is about 84", and generally speaking a lot of size for a 61 engine. BUT, looking at the pictures, the wing is quite big for the rest of the plane, so I'm guessing the wing loading is relatively low, so the engine may be enough to fly it.

Knowing the weight, even approximately, would help. Can you try to compare it to a known weight, like a bag of sugar or flour? I'd say if it seems to weigh 3 kilos or less, you should be okay. It probably won't be a power house, but....

Good luck with it.

Oh, one other thing; that's also a very narrow cord on the wing, so it'll likely be very prone to tip stalling, so keep the speed up, especially on landing.
