What to do with a FPE 1.3 motor?


Alright, I've got the cart before the horse

I've purchased a First Place Engine 1.3 with electronic igintion. It comes in with muffler and ignition at 40 oz. I was originally planning on putting it into a H9 182 Cessna but have decided that I would like something a little bit more acrobatic than the 182.

I've been looking at the GP Super Stearman or the Ceramark Pitts. Any other ideas?

Thanks guys.

I am building a Dynaflite Super Decathalon for a gas motor as well. The plans call for a 22-35cc gas, so you will be at the lower end. Its not as aerobatic as the Extra's and Giles but at least you have a chance of being the only at your feild with a big Decathalon. The plane looks good, so far the kit and building has been excellent. Word is on the internet that it flies great too.

Thanks Cevalier, but I was really looking more for an ARF than a kit. Too much to do now as it is.

How about the new Goldberg Sukhoi ? Should be nice with the the little extra power. I have read that the quality is real good.

Hey kevin, Get the stearman!! Nothing like trying to hold a slow roll axial, and doing four point's with a stearman. There are so many cermark pitts in our club that I'm tired of seeing them. lol
