I also have this kit and intended to use a Saito 130 twin. I already have the 130 twin but thought this might not be powerful enough. I was tempted to get an O.S. 160 twin. What do the experts here think. Is the 130 twin enough engine for the clipped wing?

Rick, I have a friend that has been flying his for 15 years with an old OS 120FS twin. Not the fastest thing around, but it is fairly acrobatic. The much newer Saito should do very well in this plane.
