Hey all.
Ive got a Ziroli without engines, and thats the problem, IT REALLY WONT FLY WITHOUT EM!
Ive thought about ZDZ 80ccm for the plane, or KING 50ccm
Whats do you think would be a good engine?

Nice Plane!!
My Ziroli flies great with Fuji 50's.
DA 50's would be a little more power, and (for maximum glamour), you could ask DA to reverse ignition on one engine for counter-rotating props (no extra charge).
I'm afraid ZDZ 80's would be too much engine for the plane, and (depending on how well it's built), at risk for shaking it apart.

Jeff,
As a comparsion, why did you prefer the 45's over the 62's..
Of course, the weight diff is substanial, but in general, why so..
Thx,
Robby
