Mike, you posted for info on an engine for your 4*Star60 and was leaning toward a ST 90. Did you use a ST90 and how does it fly? Did you need to add any lead to balance it?

Hi,
I've made the decision to get a SIG Four Star 60 as my second plane (especially after that glowing review in Model Aviation Magazine this month). To keep the cost down, I'm definately using a 2-stroke engine. SIG says that the range for 2-strokes is .60-.75 At first I was thinking of going with the SuperTigre G-75 (ringed), but after reading quite a few threads on RCU (as well as some of the User Ratings of the Four Star), it seems that most people with .90 sized 2-stroke engines on a Four Star say that it is very manageable - not even overpowered. After checking the prices at Tower, I noticed that the SuperTigre G-90 is only a mere $10 more than the .75, so I am seriously considering the .90 now... any thoughts?
