Which engine?
Ok, this is a slightly complex question.
1) I am committed to setting up a Phoenix Extra330S. I had actually bought it as a test bed for my 75ax but turns out the 75 is too small for 3D for that airplane. A collegue has the Phoenix Yak 60" which is essentially the same airplane.
2) Now I want to avoid buying a 95AX right now.
3) I have a 120ax which was bought for a Funtana125. I dont intend to set up my Funtana for another year atleast (unlessI crashsomething).
4) I could use the 120ax on the Extra and get a Dle20 for the Funtana, but the way the technology is evolving on gas engines, there may be something much better available by the time I decide to setup the Funtana.
5) Then again, I am not sure I should put a gasser on the Funtana which has a fragile build.
6) So far I have been only flying 60 size models (GP Reactor 46 that I just crashed but is repaired and Phoenix Topstar 60 which is same as H9 Frenzy /Twist60) and I am not sure I should make the jump to a 120 size engine so quickly
Given above description of my predicament, please suggest what should I do

RE: Which engine?
build the funtana with the 1.20
it only takes 2-3 days max..
the engine and that plane are user friendly and should not cause any issues. you may have to put your flight pack in the nose or firewall, depending on a few things..
enjoy.
