More on the CG issue, these planes tend to build a bit tail heavy so they can easily tolerate the larger engine up front. Better a larger engine than useless added lead weight. A huge benefit to going with the 20 is the larger diameter prop it can pull compered to the common glo engines used in that plane. All around better performance at any speed.
