I'm planning to get an ESM stuka Ju 87. I have a new Magnum 1.08 2 cy. engine in the box. I would like to know if this is enough engine for this plane or if the model would be underpowered with it which one would you recommend me?
Thanks in advance for you input

If the Magnum 1.08 is comparable to the OS 1.08 in power then yes it would be a good choice for the esm stuka. I used an OS 1.08 in a 1/4 scale triplane that was scratch built and it proved more than enough juice to fly the bird. I also know of a dauntless dive bomber that has been flying for years on an OS 1.08. The dauntless weighs well...and I mean well over 20 pounds. Stuka dive bomber...Dauntless dive bomber.....if the magnum is compareable to the OS it will work and you will be pleased. I would not hesitate to use it. Prop it right!
