I fly mine with a Webra 1.20, and that allowed me to not have to add any nose weight, and I pull a 17x4 prop. I have seen this plane fly on a 91fx, and it was ok, but not extreme. I think a 1.00 or 1.20 2 stroke is optimum for this airframe.

Hmmmm, not sure about that. This is an awfully light plane. The Webra 1.20 gives insane unlimited vertical, so I can imagine the 1.60's would be intense. I think a Saito 1.50 would be the ultimate motor in this plane. I am thinking of building another.

I have a YS 91AC in mine and I am really satisified with the preformance. Plenty of power for normal aerobatics. Has unlimited verticle Engine runs great and pulls great. I use YS20/20 fuel by Powermaster and a 16x4 wide blade APC prop. I am not into 3D so I never tried to hover or do any other 3D manuvers. I am really happy with this combo.
