Default GP Curtiss P-6E Hawk ARF

Hello all,
I know that there is already a post for this plane,but I figured Id start another...
I am concidering buying this plane,but Id like to hear from people who have flown it,and so on....
Is there any issues I should know about this bird?
Also,I plan to buy a Saito 1.25 GK....Should I go larger,or is this all that can be stuffed without cutting her up to much? I like over powered planes,as I intend to fly em at about half throttle...
Just like that extra juice that they can throw if you get into trouble...I think this bird will look and pull alot better with a longer,lower pitched,wide blade prop...I did this with my GP DR1... I called for a .75 4-stroke,but it recieved an Saito .82,and If I would have realized that it needed alot of weight added even yet to balance it,it would have gotten an even larger engine.... So if any of you guys have one...Be sure to post your comments on er,with pics if you have em...And tell me what you think about the engine size suggested by GP..... Thanks,Josh
