Hi,
I am planning on assembling Andrew Kondors' newest this Spring....
His B-25. No specs yet but about 83 inch wing span, 100 ounces weight, probably close to his
P-38 in size and weight.
Which engines (need 2 of course) for this baby??
I own a new RCV 60 SP. Would one more be right for this project?
Thanks, Hal

Hi Hal
Thanks for your enquiry. Without knowing the full specifications, it is difficult to give you accurate advise on what engine may be suitable.
If it is going to be simlar to the P38, then a couple of RCV60SP's or RCV58CD's should be fine, as KMP recommend a 52 size 4-stroke.
Saying this though, one of our customers has built a 84" b-25 and is powering this with 2 x RCV90SP engines. See the following link for more details: www.rcvengines.com/gallery_90sp_b25.htm
In light of this conflicting information, I would recommend emailing Andrew directly and asking him the question, as he will probably have more specifications available including what 4-stroke engine size they are planning on recommending. Email: [email protected]
I am sorry I cannot be of more help with this particular question, however if you have any other queries, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Best regards
