Does anyone else think that these models might be a little over-powered? I had a Lanier Citabria ARF with a 64" wingspan and 44.5" inches long. This model flew great on a tower .46. I installed a magnum .81 4-stroke and it flew great on floats- just needed some tail weight. The one they call th .75-.91 is not much bigger that the one I had. Just my humble opinion, though...
I would say that the light wingloading would mitigate the need for excessive power. I currently have the Lanier, and it needs very little runway to get off the ground with my .46 AX. Now I'm wondering if I should think about building a Sig kit, in light of what Tower might do to their Phoenix Decathlon. Midwest is done, you can stick a fork in it.
