Most airplanes of this size will appear to fly too fast to present well to the judges and don't track well at slow speeds. It has more to do with wing loading than actual size. The Funtana having a low wing loading will perform OK in basic but make sure you equip it with enough power and keep it light. My suggestion about a 2 stroke is because of the easier starting and tuning. when its your turn to fly the last thing you want is to be struggling with the engine when you should have your game face on. If you are comfortable with the 4 stroke and can always fire 'er up in a short amount of time and don't have to tune from flight to flight then by all means.
