Now to make up my mind as to which model to build this Winter. I now have kits of the original Kaos, the Super Kaos and the Dirty Birdy 60. Decisions, decisions. I am going to use my OS FS-91 Surpass II/P in something, but the Bridi models look a bit cramped for that big of an engine. Maybe I'll stick to two-strokes in these Bridi models and look elsewhere for a bit larger model for the OS four-strokes.

Of the kits you mentioned, you see the Dirty Birdy most often, or you might consider the Super Kaos. I don't know if flyers of the D.B. make the fuse slightly wider to better handle the 4-stroke or not. This is an example of the "tweaking" that goes on. An additional 1/2 inch wide fuse, and possible lengthening by 1 to 1.5 inches for balance purposes would never be noticed by most people, but it helps the engine fit better. Most engines are side-mounted.

Good luck, and hope to see you next season
