Default RE: What engine for Tiger 60 kit

I posted photos of my Tiger 60 with an almost inverted engine and built up cowl over on the Kit Building forum just the other day. Here's the [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_4997091/mpage_11/tm.htm#]link[/link]. I put an OS .75 in her. Earlier in that thread you'll see where I had one I put a Tower .75 in. She flew great with the TH .75. Unfortunately, I crashed on maiden, repairer her, then about six flights later, snapped the tail off and she nosed in hard from about 300' in the air. The tail was compromised in the fist flight and didn't get a strong enough rebuild. The reason I'm using the new engine is that I hosed up the carb when cleaning it up and couldn't get a replacement. (I've since bought another brand replacement, but already had purchased the OS.)

There are a lot of alterations earlier in the thread you might want to consider.
