I have a US Engine 41cc gas engine, and want a big acrobatic plane, and am just trying to figure out the limits of size and weight of what I could use it for. I'm at about 5700 ft ASL, so it's not gonna have quite the same punch as it would down at sea level.

You might want to consider the giant Big Stik ARF from Great Planes or maybe one of the larger Stinger ARFs from Lanier.

Thanks. If it can fly something like that, then I don't see why it wouldn't work in what they call the "50cc" planes, which seem to be about the same wingspan and weight range as those.

I'm starting to come to the conclusion that the gas guys are just way overpowering like the electric guys when they label something "50cc".
