NiCad pack. It should be not too hard to get it down to 8
pounds. This engine is more than enough at this weight. It is
swinging a 15X11 APC with great gusto. I had 30 MPH winds for one flight
today and had no problem. One of the local IMAC guys called it
overpowered; but I aint sure what that means. I am getting lots of
practice moving the left stick forward and back.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

font-family:Arial'>If you have someone looking to try pattern; go ahead and
suggest this model. With a OS91FX or Saito 100/125 this would be a nice
starter plane. It is a very simple plane. Really no harder to build
than a typical 40/60 sized ARF with two wing servos. The provided 16oz
fuel tanks is probably too large. I can fly intermediate twice and
have about 4 oz left. I am thinking of going for a 10 or 12 oz
tank. With a YS110 or OS120AX it will fly anything in the pattern book.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

font-family:Arial'>As for the OS120AX, I really like this engine. It will
handle a APC 16X10 and the engine is easy to adjust. The book does call
for a five flight break-in period, which seemed about right. I started
leaning on the sixth flight and it started singing. I am thinking of
designing a Model around this engine. It should handle anything up to
around 9 pounds on the stock muffler. Maybe the Insight if I can keep it
light enough, or the CA epilison 120.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
