Default Engine for Extreme Stick

I have just received a VMar Xtreme Stick Shoulder wing ARF and am wondering what engines work best in these.

My choices are:
OS 46AX
ST G51 Ringed
Saito 65AAC
Saito 72AAC
Saito 82AAC.

I run a 15% Nitro/ 20% Coolpower synthetic mix and this model will be set up with the Quad Flap option


Any thoughts?

I just had an OS 55 in a Big Stick 40. It is an ounce heaver than an OS 45. Just mount the engine closer to the firewall and move the battery back
to get a balance. Lots of power - will cruise at 1/3 throttle.
