Sorry for the off topic question, but does anybody know what those engines are on the Cri-Cri plane? I saw the video and it is really bugging me.

I know you wrote this in 2010 but, what would be the best engine from 3w engines? And also which cylinder 1 2 3 or 4.Why yes I do because I am building one. Those engines are 15HP JPX PUL 212 single cylinder motors. I most likely will be using the 3W motors. Here are some links to the engines. The single cylenders need to be lower HP so you do not get alot of vibration, the small 17HP boxers are great motors more balaced and more powere. The Cri Cri must have a true 15HP to sustain level flight with the 17HP 3W and some of the other boxers on the list you are safe even if you lose one engine,. You can still fly safely and land safely.
