What engine? GP Giant Aeromaster

Hey guys, I've just finished an ARC Giant Aeromaster biplane. It came with a Moki 1.8, but would really like to try a gasser. It calls for 30-60cc, and almost thinking about the DLE 60? Love to hear everyone's thoughts, and recommendations.

Re: What engine? GP Giant Aeromaster

I flew one with a DL50 and a MT57cc - both were more than enough for the plane.

Any "modern" 50cc class engine would work - you may want to consider an EME 55-II (55cc) engine. These are a very good value, powerful and very smooth.

It has a rear carb - which is a good fit for this plane because of the narrow cowl.

Here is a link:

Good luck!
