• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

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?
