Default RE: Avistar engine upgrade

Do you have the Avistar Select version? If you go with a bigger engine, make sure the main wing has been epoxied together and not just relying on those little metal straps (used on the Select version). With more power comes more stress on the plane and those straps are barely OK with the .40LA.
