Default Looking for advice---------------

I flew R/C until about 10 years ago, and the profile style fun-fly machines were just starting to come out. I was interested, but had other things to do with my time.

I still have my 40 size Aerosport (Ugly Stick) with a Webra Race 61 Long-stroke, and a Scat Cat 500 with a piped .45 - so I think I've found my home with this forum. :devious:

I'm going to start flying again this spring, and once I get back on the sticks I'll be looking to build a profile ship with good slow flight/Hovering characteristics. Looking for recommendations for an airframe to be powered by one of the following- I have the above 61 Race, a YS61, or a 1st Gen. OS FS91.

Kits or Scratch-built, it doesn't matter, although I would lean to scratch building. Even a suggestion on airfoil to use, and wing area to aim for, in the 60 size range.

I'm saving my 40 size engines for PBF's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for any suggestions!!
