Engine Suggestion
 
[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] I have built a Tiger 60 for my second airplane, going from a Sig Kadet LT-40 and would like suggestions as to whether or not an OS-46 FX would be sufficient to use on this model. If so, what would you suggest for a prop size? I have only been flying intermittently for about a year so the skill level for this senior citizen is at a minimum.

If you fly off grass: no!


A .46 MIGHT work on this plane, but it surely won[t be very aerobatic.

Engine Suggestion
 
I don't have experience with a Tiger 60 but I do have a Tiger 40 and found that it flew well with a 40 engine but was a shade under powered for aerobatics. I put a 46 in it and it performs great. If the 60 is anything like a 40, I'd be reluctant to put a 46 in it.
