I think the 70 is a perfect match at 35 lbs. And I fly mostly at half power except for climbing. In fact, I like this little engine. Starts and runs really well. However er, it is a Chinese cheapie. So, not sure of the longevity.
The wheels and brakes are ...Im not sure if they are gene Barton or Sierra, or ??? . I got em in the deal for the gear.
The more I fly this plane, the more I like it. So forgiving and the stall speed is really low. Never seems to drop a wing.
