Obviously he's now living "off grid"

Obviously designed for lip readers!

Recommended chat-up line for pancake day "you don't sweat much for a fat bird"?

How big does he want the doghouse to be?

I'm still running Windows Vista on one desktop, support for that stopped when Adam were a lad!

That last one is just crackers!

I dumped Direct Line this year after a big increase in insurance premium, went with LV at a price less than last year's.

And if you want to minimise drag you could mount the motor at the rear of a modified power pod and fit a folding pusher prop or mount a lower Kv motor with a larger, more efficient, prop directly to the fuselage at F1

A 6x3 or 6x2 prop should be suitable, don't forget to check the current draw with an ammeter. Also make sure that you get the angle of the power pod correct to minimise trim changes from motor on to motor off.

An .049 engine will give you anywhere between 50 and 100 watts depending upon the exact engine, prop and fuel used. Looking at the Outerzone plan it shows the motor mounted on a power pod above the wing which, presumably, is reason for the prop diameter limitation. The model weight is up to 2 Lbs so 50 watts will give a very gentle performance, with 100 watts it will be a bit more enthusiastic. For a 6" prop you will be looking for a motor of around 1800 to 2200 Kv running on a 3s battery. Something like this: https://sussex-model-centre.co.uk/products/xxd-brushless-motor2212-2200kv?srsltid=AfmBOor4kYBG57DMNtqx48Ey7xmNyYtm1Ld9BPA7Ac5GJ0xg_U0j7BL- A 15A rated ESC should be adequate and provide enough current to drive 2 small analogue servos for rudder and elevator. https://www.4-max.co.uk/4m-hesc15aV2.html

And if they are talking about alcoholism they use a bar chart.

Many years ago a fellow club member had a Super 60 with a 60 glow 2 stroke in it. A fast low pass resulted in the leading edge of the wing lifting. The wing didn't break but the rest of the model did as it performed a very tight loop into the ground.
