With the 1.80, which is a lot more power than you will need for anything, you may end up placing a rudder servo in the tail. Moving a few things around prior to their installation after insatlling the engine will tell you for certain. There's too many battery and component weight and positioning variables to say for certain until it's in front of you.

Status: offline 		I'm out of West Palm Beach -- the RC Bush Pilots field. I see you're in Lake Butler? Didn't know where that was until I just saw on the Google maps. I've got most of my family in and around Gainesville and some in Jacksonville, but I've never done any flying in either location.

Status: offline 		I was thinking of the YAK for my 160 FX, but today I'm thinking the baby edge. THat's a good motor for this plane, right?

Status: offline 		Would a Saito 1.50 be underpowered for the Baby Edge? I have to replace a recently departed plane that my 1.50 was on. I cannot seem to find anyone flying one with a 1.50 so that probably is not a good sign. Please keep in mind that I would like to be able to do some 3D with it, and have some verticle pull-out.

Status: offline 		No. It was on a Mayhem 3D, and I think it weighed in around 9 lbs. I was running a 17x6 APC. Would that still be the best prop for desired thrust and speed?
