ORIGINAL: kluivertfan2

Im looking at getting an aircraft that says it can take a .61 to .80 sized engine. I have access to a .91 sized engine, would this be a good way to make my plane end up in pieces, or would over powering it be OK? Specificly im looking at the Top Flite Corsair

The 91 will be a good choice for this plane especially if you decide to glass it, add retracts, etc. Be advised that a Corsair (in ANY scale ) is one of the more difficult birds to successfully fly.
