What size engine?

       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Not wanting to rush the season but, I am planning for my next build project. I plan to kit build a Spacewaker II (1/4 scale) and need some advice on an engine size. The plans indicated a 26 cc 4 stroke (1.6 glow) but I want to use a gas engine. Should I be considering a comprable sized 2 stroke gas engine or another size. Thanks for any advice.
