I've built quite a few Scouts using electric - typically a 3548-100 KV with an 11*5.5 prop

Decided to modify one, make it a tail-dragger, and use a 25 ASP Nitro with a 9*6 prop

Here is the log with electric, has the specs too  http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/scout-15-adapted-to-corro-electric/

Brief Specs:
Span: 50"
Chord: 9"
Type: Low Winger Sport, aerobatic trainer
AUW: ~ 1.25 Kg

What a beautiful flier!

Stable and predictable, yet agile enough for most aerobatics. A real pleasure to fly

The Nitro engine gives a lot more "punch," and with a litre of fuel, can easily fly 6 sorties of 10+ minutes each on that frugal ASP

Model looks superb Sir  :)
Do share video of maiden flight.

A low winger is not a trainer - it has to be flown in under power all the way till touchdown. Especially in a cross-wind

Finally a video, although I must have completed over 50 sorties on this!

Flew after 5 weeks, but despite the cold was a lot of fun

Great flying....

@Arvindkharebpl
Those team international cricketers are all over India.
On Sundays they all occupy any empty ground available.
We also face such situation and have to abort our flying sessions.
