Enough Power For Floats?
I have a Carl Goldberg Cub with clipped wings. I added the build up floats, and covered the entire thing with super coverite and paint. Dosen't seem to be very heavy, but I am concerned about the required power. When I built it, I placed an OS 91 Surpass I on it, but during test running, it seemed like way too much, so I have replaced the 91 with the OS 61 four stroke, which looks much better, but will that be enough to fly the thing?

Enough power
I have a CG cub, but not clipped. I have the cub floats for it and glassed them to... I flew mine with an Enya 46 four stroke and it flew just fine. The vertical was nonexistent, but it puttered around the sky like a cub should. The 61 should be easily enough power..
