I had an Oriental that I had an LA 46 in, it was awesome. I mean AWESOME, talk about power to weight ratio,, I had a massaged wood prop on it to absorb the power but the thing flew like a monster,, ( as in it flew good)
I also had LA46 in the P-40 profile, a Twister, a Vector and my Gee Bee profile( which was built around Pat Johnston/Brodak P-40 wing. The Oriental weighed 43 ounces the Gee Bee after its 5 or 6 rebuild, or maybe 8 or ninth heck I dont remember, it weighed mid 50 ounces, so high wing loading and it was solid
