I have since decided on the Seagull Models 540 ARF, 72" span. It's finished really well and looks well built too. I didn't fly it yet b/c the weather has been too lousy. The 60 sized Seagull Edge 540 has tons of praise - see another thread for the 60 size.

I bought the 66" Cap. The box stated a 60 2 stroke for the plane........ I bought a 90 2 stroke and the thing was way under powered.. I stuck a GMS 120 2 stroke in the plane.
It now flies but not that great. The covering SUX peals of everywhere I have tried everything I can't find the same color covering anywhere. Only has CA hinges single servo arm for elevator. These planes are made by a company in China CMPro. China Model productions.
I won't buy another one

dogz: Try the 60 sized seagull edge 540 - from what people on this thread say, it runs great with a 90 but the 120 overpowers it. If you are dying to use your 120, the Edge 120 by seagull is great - excellent fit and finish.
