How about flight characteristics and weight? Power combos? Any input would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Built mine using HS225MG servos and an OS .32SX for power. Plane flies pretty quick and with the throws dialed up, will roll like its mounted on a giant Makita.
Im kinda weird and usually get an engine first THEN look for something to mount it on. Got the Uproar kit to build while the wife was out of town. Figured it would keep me outta trouble.
Great building kit and a joy to fly. Only thing I would do different would be to mount the engine sideways to put the muffler underneath. Tends to get a bit slimey.
