I am in the military and stationed away from my usual RC fleet. I am looking to buy a used hobbico extra 300s AWARF with a super tiger .45. The plane is supposed to come in at 6 pounds. I already have a GP extra 300s ARF with a OS 46 FX back home and I love how it flies. Can I expect similar performance from the Hobbico 300 with a ST 45? I am confused at this because a manual I found on hobbico's website says it's a 60 size plane when the weight and wingspan are nearly identical to the "40" size great planes extra I own.
Thanks
Tim

I can't weigh in on the plane, but I have both OS .46 and ST .45's and I find the ST to be a more powerful engine, even the Chinese version! At 6 lbs I think you might be happier with a .60 size. Just my .02, hope this helps.

That engine will fly it well and will give the usual aerobatics, but if you are looking for excellent advanced aerobatic performance and vertical you will need a different engine. It really depends on how you are looking to fly it.
