I'm flying mine with a .61 TT Pro. Not enough umph but I fly at 5300' elevation field. I'm going with a .91FX next. The kit is older and doesn't have all the nice laser cut pieces that newer kits do. The fuselage is ply sheeted which is a little strange. I soaked mine and "precurved" them before gluing. The nose is just a block of wood and is a pain to carve to the desired shape. I used two aileron servos and one elevator servo in the wing rather than the weird pushrod setup in the stock kit. I had to cut a hatch in the nose to mount the battery to get it to balance properly. It's a pain to cover because the wing is so big. You have to be a little creative so you don't wind up with too many seams. Flies very easy. Lands so sweet. You can cut the power way out on the downwind leg and it comes in nice and slow. Fun plane. No rudder though, so you basically fly fast and turn left.
