Default RE: Avistar ARF

That looks great! Honestly, my first glow powered aircraft was a Tower Hobbies trainer 40. It was a great aircraft but the covering did suck. I recovered it once about 2 years after I got it new because It was a bit tattered. I'll take some pics of whats left of it soon. As far as engines go I will just use the trusty old .46LA. I have an Evo .46 that powers my Hangar 9 PulseXT quite nicely but I want to leave it on the pulse because I have the aircraft flying so well right now. You can buy a Evo .46 for around 100 bucks I think and its a ball bearing motor and has tons more power than the OS. Never owned a Super Tiger so I can comment on it. If you buy an Evo count on adding a bit of lead to the tail because the Evo is a bit heavy over other same size engines.
