Depends on your plans. If you want to fly make sure you have enough horse power to get it airborne. This depends on the propellers design and how the plane was built. Also, out of what materials was it made? How fast do you want to go? Got to size up the motor correctly. Remember it has weight that effects your total load.
The THRUST SSC has a top speed of 1228km per hour and it weighs 6.4 tonnes.
A 1994 Suzuki DT140 with aluminum propeller weighs 379lbs.
Let's take the forces one-at-a-time starting with Thrust.1. Thrust - is provided by the propeller or jet engine; thrust acts to move the plane forward into the air.2. Lift - As the plane moves forward the shape of the wing (airfoil) causes a pressure difference that exerts an upward force on the wing -- the lift force. As thrust increases lift increases and the plane rises as lift overcomes the downward pull of gravity.3. Gravity - the force that pulls objects back to Earth. In order to have an object like a plane rise higher the Lift force must be stronger than the pull of gravity. If a plane weighs 10,000 lbs (pull of Gravity) then Lift must be 10,001 lbs or more in order for the plane to rise.4. Drag - Air moving over a surface experiences friction as the air molecules rub against the surface. Rough surfaces have more friction than smooth ones, but even smooth surfaces have some friction; the net effect is to oppose the forward motion and slow the airplane down. Thrust must be strong enough to overcome the total Drag and accelerate the plane to a speed that generates enough Lift to overcome Gravity and allow the plane to rise.

Jet powered is faster than propeller power. Swept wings are faster than straight wings. Rocket powered planes were tried (M-163 Komet), but, they failed. Bigger more powerful engines. Today's F-15 Eagle two engines can put out more thrust than the aircraft weighs.
1 pound of thrust is the force required to hold 1 pound of a material stationary in the air against the effect of gravity. This is only in ideal case(no effects of atmosphere) and excluding the weight of the engine which generates that thrust.
Thrust is independent of weight. In straight and level flight thrust operates forward, drag operates to the rear, weight operates downwards and lift operates upward. For a rocket, traveling straight up (away from the center of the earth), drag and weight operate downwards while thrust operates upwards. --- The above answer appears correct (where "operates" is taken to mean "exerts force in the indicated direction") - additional discussion follows: (I am assuming we are talking about a rocket or an aircraft for the purposes of this answer. I am also assuming that by weight, we mean mass) The mass of a craft does not affect the thrust per se, that is, they are independent quantities as discussed below. Since the thrust is a function of the type (efficiency) of engine and the amount of fuel delivered per second, a formula expressing the thrust will not include the mass of the craft directly, hence the independence. However, of course, the thrust that a given craft can generate will be a function of the size of its engines, the type of fuel, and the amount of fuel delivered to the engine per unit time. Since the weight of the craft is partly determined by the size of the engine and the specific gravity of the fuel, there is a second order relationship between the weight of the craft and the thrust. The acceleration of the craft under thrust will of course depend on the thrust and the mass according to Newton's Second Law, F=MA, or in this case, the form A=F/M. PS: I'm not considering the relativistic realm either - you're on your own there!
A bowling ball is very heavy and out weighs the pins.
It will travel forward at the same speed as the car for a split second then slow down quickly due to air resistance and then fall to the ground. It would be so light as to not move forward more than a few feet.
Three is a good number for balance. Two would not be stable (could tip forward or backward.) Four works only if the streets are level, is not as maneuverable and weighs more.
Anything that weighs 1,000 kilograms weighs a tonne.
