RE: accel kat 70
The 82 would have the power but it's really too light. I have the
plane, which is great, but it needs a motor with some weight up
front. I have a Magnum 91FS in mine and had to mount forward
for it to balance. Mine still weighed in a shade under 6lb even
with the heavy Mag. The plane is superb, will do it all.

A Saito 82 will 3D the plane well if you keep it light... I've got a Saito 91 on mine and it'll do anything I want, plus has good pull out of a hover... A lot of guys put a Saito 100 on them... Mine came out at 5lbs 4oz with the 91 and I added some CF bar to reinforce the fuse...
BTW, if you got your's off eBay, cut the covering and reinforce the wing spar and glass where the wings join...
