Default Vectorflight Edge 540 engine choice

Sup people,

I just ordered A Vectorflight Edge 540 and need some opinions on engine selection. I have narrowed my selection to 3 possible choices: an O.S. 91/108 FX, Saito 1.00/1.2, or YS 110 FZ.

Could I here from any/all experienced pilots that have used these engines before? I have read that the YS should be the best of the three. I would just like to here about some actual applications/uses of these engines.

One more thing: this will be my largest plane/engine yet. What size prop should I use on this? I am quite fond of APC props and will definitely stay with them.

I am not looking to do any type of 3D moves, just basic and advanced aerobatics. I would like the plane to have nice speed and vertical perfomance.

Thanks for the assistance.
