You'd have to convert the RV-3 to giant scale RC = model to=20 carry enough
fuel. Their rep at SNF told me their -4 is burning = 14 GPH=20 at 140 mph
(about 80-90 hp).

Isn't their engine=20 flying on a Piper of some type?  140 is probably close to max = speed=20 for that type of plane, so it would be much more than 90 HP.  =
