Default RE: Showtime 50 anyone?

Hello All,

I have read good things on the Showtime 4D and want nothing else + it really looks great.
I am buying my first 3D plane.

I have a Magnum XL Series 91RFS 4-Stroke and was thinking of the Showtime 4D 90. I read it was underpower for 3D.

1) Now I have to consider the Showtime 4D 50. Will the Magnum be too much at 22.4oz of weight? (see specs below)

2) If not, should I anticipate any problem?

Thanks,

Jean-Yves
