Default Which Stinger??

I like the look of a Stinger and am considering an ARF. Problem is, I have a brand new OS 108FSR that's lookin' for a home. The 60 size stinger recommends a 91 at the top end, while the Stinger 120 suggests anything from a .91 to a 2.2. The 108 seems too close to the low end of the spectrum on that one for me. So, I'm wondering.... anybody ever shoe-horn the 108 in the 60 Stinger?

I have a OS 91 fx in my 60 size Stinger and that is over powered which is fine with me. Needed to add a bit of lead though. With a 108? I think you could most likely fly the wings off.

Put a Evolution 1.0 in mine, got over a hundred flights on it with no problems.

what size stinger? I've got a 25cc gas on my 120 stinger, and that is certainly not overpowered, i can't imagine going with any less power. also, the 120 needs LOTS of weight up front, you will be adding lead to an already underpowered plane.

Your OS 1.08 FSR is a beast of an engine - very strong. It's probably more at a level of most 1.20's out there. I wouldn't waste that power on any 60 size plane.
