Default RE: Engine suggestions for a Four Star 60?

I used the four star .60 as my first low wing and its alot easier than a trainer to fly. I started with a Super Tigre .75. Does everything very well, but verticle is not unlimited. My third plane was a Vectorflight 58 in exctra 300s with aSuperTigre .90. Absolutely unlimited verticle. I like that so much i just got a Super Tigre .90 for the Four Star and am awaiting its first flight with this combination. I also did the rudder mod often discussed on the forums, (one inch added rudder width and one inch counterbalance on top). Knife edge has absolutely no tendencies to go anywhere but straight. Very nice.
