GP 40 size 300s what size engine

I have a 46fx but i am considering a 50sx or a Magnum 80 four stroke. Which would be best for this plane?

Any will work well. Personally, I would try the 4-stroke first. It may require cutting the covering in the back to install the battery back there for balance, but it would be worth it.

I have a 46 FX on mine, and it is plenty of power for scale aerobatics. Not unlimited vertical, but it pulls it around fine. Either a 46FX or 50SX would be fine.

Any of the engines you mentioned will work well on this plane.
