It's now on the Great Planes page, but geez a 1.60FX for power, I think thats a lil bit too much, not necessarily in power, but price.

I think a great way to get this plane in the air would be the the Supertigre G2300, for only $150 vs $290 for the FX, and thats assuming you get the FX without muffler and then buy a Pitts muffler. That $140 saved could be useful for some more hi torque servos like some hitec 625MG or 645MG.

Anyone else think the covering scheme is pretty sharp for this new updated SS?

I was looking at the manual and it doesn't show what type of muffler you would use with a glow engine. I would guess it uses the standard muffler and you cut the cowl and let it hang out.
