I have a RE webra 61 with macs tuned pipe. It was going to go into another plane that weighs ~9.5 lbs, but it seemed too heavy for such an engine. I know the Dream weighs in about 8 lbs. Is this with the engine? Either way, it would be much lighter than my other plane and I was wondering if the webra would be strong enough. I know it is on the low side of the recommended range (60-91), but with the pipe, I think the engine is probably closer to a .75 engine with a regular muffler. Before I get rid of the webra (can't think of anything else to put it in), can you guys comment on whether this would suffice? I know some are running ys110-120's, but that is not an option right now. thanks.

Thanks. I'd be using the plane more for sports flying, as I don't compete (yet). I just want to make sure the plane doesn't fly like a dog. I mean if I have to fly the thing 3/4 throttle just to keep it in the air, I'll get the bigger engine.
