Don't hesitate, you'll like it. I put one together with an OS .65 in the nose, it will do anything a I need it to do. It was my first bipe, so was nervous about flying it. Had heard that bi-planes needed to be landed hotter than other planes. Not so with the Sundancer. It flys easy like a trainer, but is quite areobatic when you want it to. Your engine/plane combo should work fine. Enjoy!!
