I was thinking of doing the same. I know it has been flown with an OS FT 160 (twin cylinder 4 stroke) which should be similar in power. It is also flying the Great Planes PT-17 military Stearman...

Mick Reeves makes some great plans/kits. I really like the Bleriot at the bottom of this page. I have seen videos of it flying.

RE: UMS Evolution Radial Care and Operation

So you remove the bannana plugs and use plugs of your choice? I like EC3 plugs and they can carry the amps. Would that work?
