RE: modern smaller pattern plane kit??
You are probably Gray Beard. Actually, the engine I want to use is an OS120AX. I guess I wasn't clear on that. It looks like the only great choices are the VenusII ARF and the Focus Sport ARF. I can't find a price for the Epsillon 90 and it might be a bit small for the 120AX. Comments about the Focus Sport seem to say that the VenusII is better built. I do like the through tube method of mounting wings though. I guess life is full of compromises eh?
