Default RE: Hobbico flightstar 40 need more opinions

I managed to pick one of these up on Craigslist last year, and it has been a blast to fly with an older 40FP engine on it. That flat bottom wing allows it to just float and makes for a very nice slow flyer or sunday easy flying plane. I need to redo some of the monokote on it as it went through a tree last summer during a combat contest with very minor scratches on it. i can't wait to get this plane back in the air again, but I am thinking of putting a 46 size engine and putting floats on it. Should be a great float plane........ If there are any more out there, that would be pretty kewl to see flying again.......
