Is that a Torp. .29 Sparker in the Barnbuster? I have a Forster .29 Sparky that runs great and flies my Fireball really well. Been thinking it might get something like the Barny Through the pattern. Do you know who the owner is?   H^^

The Torp 32 Barnstormer was flown by Doug Benedetti from New Jersey. I may have the spelling off a bit but close enough. And yes, it was run on spark ignition.

I will assume it is a front rotor engine. If it can crank out the rpm it will do fine. Some of the Forsters I have seen in the past have been a bit on the weak side. The Forsters were built with very close fits and usually took a lot of break in before reaching their potential. A Barnstormer would be a good fit for it. I would also recommend a transistor spark module and Rimfire plugs to save you a lot of hassle.
