i have a black horse hurricane it cam fitted with a mintor 38 cc, the z38 will be a very tight fit,

you may have to modd the cowl quite hevley

It will fly on the Z38, but it won't be no pylon racer.

Slow and steady will be the order of the day.

I re-engined mine eith a DLE55RA. it was a perfect match. A bit overpowered, but not overly but it was a delight to fly, which i did fir 3 years before selling it on.

Just my 2p's worth.

To be fair Charlie, the full size Hurri was no pylon racer either..what wingspan is the BH Hurri?

Ah- its almost the same as the DB. Here are a couple of pics I took when I fitted my 38 to my DB Hurricane. Hope they help.

Thank you all very much for your advice. Will attempt to put the Z38 in. Would rather it fly a bit slower than a pylon racer. Just have to be careful with take offs and landings if slightly underpowered.

Recommend getting a carb bend if you dont already have one.
