I am looking at building my first IC engine. From what I have found it looks like the Midge and the Weaver Motor Boys plans would fit the bill with fairly simple shapes and easily available materials. Both look like fairly simple projects and are well within the range of the equipment that I have. It looks to me like the Midge is the simpler build due not having a simpler case shape and not having an internal threads that need to be single pointed. Looking for reasonably easy starting and enough power for a small FF or 2 channel RC plane. Diesel instead of glo so I don't need to carry a battery around or mess with glo plugs.
Are these good choices? Are there others that are similar that I should look at? Any particular reason to choose one over the other?
