I've had alot of stick time in the past with a Sig Four Star 40 and it flys like a good second plane. It will land like a trainer and is very forgiving but it will teach you the next step into aerobatics. Seems to me that that engine will do good in it. I have run OS 40FPs and Super Tiger 45ABC in mine and both had plenty of power. The kit has always been cheep (Im not sure what it goes for now), but ive always believed that in order to get past a certain level of flying you have to build your own, you'll learn alot more and have a greater respect for the sport. Just as brocja01 said the Twist does fly well to but it is a more 3D capable plane. Either of these planes don't need monster servos the standards should do fine.
