Default Help explaining these 3 seagull ARF kits

Hello guys...

Well, I bought a "60 size" kit: http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...ProdID=SEA4000 to use with my OS91FX.... now I have read that I will be limited with that engine. What a surprise when I check the specs and I can not believe that this plane is bigger/heavier than two "90 sizes of the same company!!!!", please take a look at the specs:
Extra
http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...ProdID=SEA5025
Yak
http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...ProdID=SEA5100

Why did they do that????? I saw it was a 60 size and as such I bought it thinking that it would be smaller than a 90 size and a 90FX would be great for it.... I can not give back the kit and I am stuck with that now... [&o]

I guess I should have read better the specs but I just trusted that "60 size" was smaller than 90 size....

Does anyone has an explanation why the company did this? Why not to list it as an EDGE 90 size?
