Wayne we are doing a 200 in Andrews and we don't have the motor yet, It's not that big of a deal the 200 is exactly 2" longer than the 150, just tell Walt to build the motorbox 2" shorter and you will be fine.

If and when the times comes we can cut the motor box.
There is no release date on the 200 so theres no way to tell whether the motor would come before the build is finished or we'd have a completed airframe waiting for a motor.

150 and Greves for now.

Doesn't the 200 put out about as much power as a 150 on pipes ? If that's the case the 150 is the way to go plus you'll have a lighter plane.

I dont know.
I would think the 200 has to be more power than an extra 300 rpm on a 150 but I could be wrong.

I know Jon's Godfrey when I flew it had plenty of power. It was in the 90's that day wasnt it Albert?
I am sure the plane on a 150 and Greves will be enough but the 200 has cool factor!

Yeah, and the 200 sounds like a real plane. And 4 cylinders must be smooth.
