I think you'd really be happy with the US40. I have a Thunder Tiger Pro .46 on mine and it is all I need for power. Cant go straight out of sight vertical, but who cares. This is only my 2nd year of flying and I handle it with no problem. I cant believe how easy it slows down for landings. It slows down easier than my H9 Easy2 trainer did with the same engine and prop combo for landings. I did go with the tailwheel assembly that came with it, even though it was a pistol to install. It has held up after about 15 landings and several first time touch-n-go's that I did today...they are a blast! There has been alot of complaints about the tailwheel if you haven't heard. The planes also goes together very fast-much faster than any arf I have done. Had it together in just two nights. As you can tell, I really love the plane.
