Who has built a Cardinal Evolution (40 to 51 size) and what power did you use?

James - the Evolution will fly well with a number of engines. I've heard of using an ST 46, an LA 46 and a few 40s.
The SAITO 40 will also work very well.
You can use a Brodak or FP 40 but it would be just a bit on the weak side - go for a bit more power.

I bet an Aero Tiger 36 would do the trick.

A Stalker .51RE with the single baffle muffler would be Really Cool!  y1 Steve

I have witnessed Scott's plane fly very well over the period he flew it. He took allot of placks/trophys home.

Scott,

Thanks for the reply, I'm considering building one in the future (don't know that it will happen before next summer).  I'm seriously thinking of building to accept PA 61 and ST 51.
