Easier with outrunners I guess, but I like the skinny little 28mm motor can and you can get a fair amount of hp in that diameter.
I am using a 28 mm inrunner on my full size Demon similar to the one I used on the stingray. Running it with a 5.25X6.25 on a four cell I hope that I should be able to get it to at least the 200 mph mark, and as you know that is a pretty clean airframe with wings that are only 3/8" at the thickest..
