Hello Everyone,
I am new to this forum, and just picked up a partially completed Acro Sport 1 kit. The project is far enough along...fuselage welding complete, wings ready for leading and trailing edges etc, that it is time to consider engine options so that I can start considering firewall forward options.
I am not a hard acro guy, and my intended mission is to bum around the sky and do the occasion loop or roll,,with a few wing overs. My goal,is to build a simple and light airframe. Minimum electric, maybe even just a starter and a good battery. I flew a Spezio Two Holer for years with just a starter and battery and was never left without enough juice.
So with that in mind I am considering everything from 0-200's , 0-235's to maybe even a 0-320 and probably a metal prop.
What's is the collective group thoughts on these choices?
