Default Help me find. Fastest ARF for 91 4stroke engine.

Hi
I'd like to find a very fast(hopefully good looking too) 60-size ARF.
I have a Magnum 91 4 stroke for it.
BTW, how fast is fast in RC prop planes, 120mph ?
Thanks.

Jake.

My Vote would be for the Great Planes ShoeString Racer

Great looking plane and extremely fast with a 91

Anything over 100 is fast.

I would go to the Extreme prop plane section for ideas on fast planes. Fast I would say is anything from 150 mph to 200 mph. Not sure about 4 strokes going that fast. But I have seen many 2 strokes in there.

Jim....thank you for bringing this to my attention. I have been flying a modified (landing gear) Shrike and just love the speed. When it goes in, i'm glad to know that there is something to take its place because I hate planes without landing gear. I usually keep up with what's new but this one slipped by me. Thanks again, Dave

Critical Mass from Hobby Lobby. They have it posted as an electic, but was intended to be gas. I have a Saito 1.00 in mine and it hauls ass. Well over 100mph!!!

Throw a YS 140 on that baby and hang on. You might think I'm kidding but I'm not. I'm flying a Clipped wing 4* 40 right now that used to have some sort of 90 four stroke on it. The original owner told me it was super fast. The wing is clipped 6 in's on it.
