Default Motor Help

Hey Guys I am Building a stylus 40 which is a copy of the sig four star.....
this is my second one of these planes.....the last one i crashed... last sunday... It had a magum pro 45 on it....
I am trying to decide what motor to put on this new one I have a os Max 52 surpass four stroke... the only thing about the magum 45 is i have to cut part of the side of the plane out to get clearance for the muffler...... and the OSmax 52 will clear everything.... Which motor do yall think will be the best for this plane will i see any more power out of the os 52 max or will it be about the same

Will definitly have more power but probably slower. Will be heavier so check CG before flying.

I had a Saito 56 on a couple of my 4 stars in the past, a very good combination. I imagine your OS 52 would be similar.
Where do I find this Stylus kit? That one sure looks great, I'm a wheel pant fan aswell.

[sm=thumbs_up.gif] Sweet looking plane!

Just me, but I'd go with the four stroke.

Nice Plane,


Hope your not using the same Rx in this one ?
Oh, go with the 4 stroke also.
