Default GP Dazzler & Engine selection

OK, I've also just bought a Lasermodels "3D Laser"

I just love the quality of those lasermodels kits, and while at the LHS last week I simply could not resist...

(it's this one for those unfamiliar with it:

Anyway, I don't want to spend a fortune on engines for every plane, so I was thinking about getting an engine that would be fine for the both of them.

The Laser 3D has 10" more wingspan, is almost 19" longer, has almost a double wing area, but is less than 1 lb heavier.

Mfg recommends a .46 to .53 engine. I was thinking about the new OS .50SX here.

Now, could I use the .50SX in the Dazzler, or would that be just to much ? (It's the same weight as a 46FX, and I can always put the elevator&rudder servos in the tail to compensate right?)

Well, just curious about your opinions!
