I am thinking about getting a 73" Edge and wanted to know if a Brison 2.4 would be a good engine or should i just get a Saito 180 for this plane. The gas engine is heavy but the saito glow eats a lot of fuel. Has any one run a gas engine in this plane (brison 2.4) or could anyone tell me a few pros and cons of these engines. Any input would help.
Thanks for any help rik1024

Your post will probably go unanswered as this subject has been covered numerous times.
Simply do a search in this forum and all your questions have already been covered.

It HAS been answered but I'll do it again.

I built and flew one with a Brison 2.4. It was not real heavy at 12.5 lbs, flew great, but one must be careful about applying full power all at one time, there is a pretty sizable torque reaction if you just slam the throttle open at low/no airspeed that could get you into trouble.

That's the story. I would not go bigger than the 2.4.

Thanks for your help i will stick with a saito 180 i think .
