i think it might take a while before thiese kits get up to speed with the weight of thiese new engines.most problems begin when engine swaps are made.a plane needs to be built around the engine.(weight & wing tube location) .worst case it is possible to relocate the wing tube on some models been thier done that
you're correct in principle, for sure. But in practice, in today's ARF-world, Hangar 9 and Great Planes have arfs that don't lend themselves very well at all to ANY kind of change. Moving the wing on a H9 or GP large arf would in essence be "re-kitting", and that would sure take the charm out of the ownership.
