75" Edge engine ?
 
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

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.
