Hello all,

I'm building a 1/4 scale model of Edmund Pierce's 3 RNAS Sopwith Pup, "Black Arrow". However, I only have one photo of it and a single color plate of it. Does anybody know which it was powered with, a Le Rhone or Clerget rotary? I don't want to put the wrong engine in the cowl and know it.

FSL Pierce's Pup Black Arrow, N6171, Sqn code "P", was powered by an 80hp Le Rhône. :)
