I put a Magnum 160 twin in mine , did you need to add any weight to the nose or tail to balance the CG ? Awesome touch-downs , looks very stable at low speeds .
I didn't need to add any weight to balance, it was perfectly balanced. Yes, it is pretty stable but maneuverable at the same time if you add good throws. A roll takes it like 1 sec.
okay thanks, its going to be awhile before i have that much money to throw at a remote control plane. If you wanted to buy the cheapest engine possible that would still run decent, how much do they usually cost?
Plane (Hangar 9 Cessna 182) was $569, Engine (Saito 180) was $389, and any standar flight pack would work (receiver, transmiter and servos) around $150. Total, about $1,150
Esta de lujo tu Cessna, felicidades pq se ve que la disfrutas a plenitud.
Saludos!

Well, there are not many options. I guess that the ceapest you can get is a 2 strokes engine like the O.S. 1.60 for like $269.

An Stearman PT-17 1.20 from Great Planes at a Laredo Hobby shop (ABC Hobbies), and a PC-9 Pilatus from ebay.
