just remember when your moving from 2 stroke to 4 you have to go up in displacement. If you really want to get wild i know Saito makes a new FG20 4-Stroke Gasser. if you can find a way to move the crank sensor you could use that evolution has one also small 4 stroke gas that is..

.40 2stroke = about .72 4stroke nitro

ya power to weight ratio a 2stroke will outperform a 4stroke. BUT w a 4 stroke the sound, torque, and fuel conservation is often worth it to us airplane guys.

I think that is right because on a 2-stroke you make power on every stroke where on a 4-stroke it's every other stroke.

you mean every revolution, or every two strokes for a two stroke

a 2 stroke will always beat a 4 stroke of the same displacement. A power stroke every 2 strokes or a power stroke every 4 strokes. 4 strokes are much more reliable, but this is r/c! What's reliable?
