Guys, I am bringing an old engine back to life, and need a flight test bed.
Do not want to spend much money as I do not know if the engine will behave or not.
So, if anybody has an airplane sitting around, and is willing to get rid of it, please get in touch.
Size of the airplane would be for a typical 0.45 engine, weight around 2500g, 5lbs.
Thanks,

Guys, got this airplane for free from a friend.

Saito 56 nitro was stored in a box (preserved with after run oil) for five years.

Fired it, came back to life as from a time machine.

Flew perfectly today.

Great idea!

After testing the Saito 56, how about building two nacelles in the wings, with two cheap OS 40LA??

That will be Frankeinstenic !
