Are you sure that's enough power?

I bought one of these off a fellow on RCO. He powered it with a Rossi .61/header/pipe, used standard servos all around... the plane balanced perfectly with the battery pack attached to the fuse behind the fuel tank. Since it was damaged in shipping we ended up replacing the kit with new one. I plan on using a YS .61 an a 13x8 prop, as I'm not real impressed with the Rossi. I'm not sure whether to use a tuned pipe or not - I'm thinking of replacing the pipe with a Pitts muffler.
