Default RE: Larger engine for my alpha 40

It's almost impossible to overpower a model, even a trainer, if you do things right. By doing things right I mean keeping the CG in the correct place and choosing a prop (particularly the pitch) that doesn't allow any speed increase. My son has a 1.08 in his 40 trainer and it's a delight to fly.
