I have chosen an airplane I want as my next. A stinger 60. I was wanting to know if the kit is better than the ARF? Is an O.S. 90 4- stroke a good engine for it? If anyone has built the ARF or the kit please reply.

Thanks

dude be serious please

I built the 60 as a kit. The drawbacks were the foam core wings which are heavy and a pain to build(my view). The plastic engine cowl is total junk as it has to be cut up so much it falls apart very soon. The wing saddle is very weak if not worked over also.
The good thing is that it flys well on a 61 2 stroke or 91fs which I had on mine. Think I would try an ARF the next time.

The Stinger kits have foam wings and ABS for the turtledeck, cockpit area, tank cover, cowl and wheel pants. The ABS cracks easily.

The Stinger ARFs have a built up wood wing, turtledeck, cockpit and tank cover. They have painted fiberglass cowl and pants.

The ARF is much better, in my opinion.
