Default Thrust to weight ratio for sport / aerobatic flying

I have a 68" wingspan sport / aerobatic model that weights 10 lbs. that I would like to use to practice IMAC style Basic plus aerobatic manouvers. What is a good thrust to weight ratio to have for this type of flying, no 3D stuff. Thanks .

For a plane that size and weight you cant go wrong with a strong .90 2 stroke.
