My Contender has an OS46FX in it and it was definitely not tail-heavy.....as a matter of fact I had to add weight to the nose to make it balance.
If you have to add weight to the nose.... wouldn't that mean it was tail heavy???

The 46FX has enought power to really move this plane around so I don't understand the need to "over-power" this plane with a 61. It is a great flying airplane built as stock.
From Top Flight web site...
This is a 30th Anniversary Gold Edition Contender .60 Sport Model Airplane.
Building this plane with a 60 size motor is stock...
