Default RE: 4-stroke for Tiger 2 ?

This is a 61 span plane, intended for lazy Sunday flying
The Tiger 2 is not really intended for lazy Sunday flying. It's an aerobatic trainer. Of course if your idea of lazy Sunday flying includes a lot of loops, rolls and knive edge, then it would fit nicely. But in that case you are going to want more power than the 52 has to give.

What flight character will this have with a 52?
The 52 puts out about the same useable power as a 40LA. The Tiger is about the same size and weight as the typical 40 size trainer. Picture a 40LA in a Nexstar or an LT40.
