Hi Steve, I just hope my doctor doesn't see it or I'll be in for another lecture!
Its an OS 15CV, apparently its got a bit more poke than the LA. Getting the pushrod close to the fuselage side to clear the tank was a bit of a pain though.
 
 
I thought it looked like a OS CV or CZ or such. There's some whhhooomph...in that engine. I do approve. Reason why? It's still a 15 and 15 size and light. Yes its powerful, but we have a throttle. Fitting an LA 25 might provide similar power, but with a larger engine. It's not an engine that sells everyday, its heavier than a LA 15, but far more powerful ( from memory).
 
10 to 15% nitro and the a 9 x 4 or 8.5 x 4 prop and you should be able to go up out of your hand! ( depening on WebBIT weight!)
 
Nice one, looking forward to hearing how it goes.
 
Steve
