pizazz 40 engine?
 
I would go with either a Webra 50 or an Irvine 53 if you desire a two stroke or an YS .63 or Satio .72 if you want a fourstroke. Use a 12.25x3.75 APC with the two strokes and a 13x4W APC with the fourstrokes. The Webra 50GT and the YS .63 would be my first choice. Stay away from MDS. They seem to have alot of problems staying running. The Rossi .45 is powerful but quite heavy.

Mds can't run or throttle proper....BELEIVE ME!
I would go with a 13x4 on the Irvine, mine didn't seem to happy with the 12 1/4x3 3/4....

The Pizazz is a little heavy. I have a saito 72 on mine and its OK. I wish I put a OS or K&B 61.

saito 80
 
I had a saito FA80 so I used it and the plane flies GREAT! It balanced perfectly with no weight added (the 80 is 3 oz's heavier than the 72) and power is super with the APC 13-6 prop. It will also fly quite fast without flutter and do all the manouvers except a good elevator or harrier (too heavy and stalls out).

Nice sport fun fly plane! I am glad I got it.

PS. I have not owned an MDS but havent heard anything good - which in itself is not good. On the other hand, have not heard or experienced anything bad with saito, OS, webra or rossi engines all which I own and run.
