Do you mean the the Thunder Tiger Fun Extra profile?
If yes, then as long as you use either a 12 x 4 or a 12.25 x 3.75 propeller, you should be fine. It's a fairly good plane, however, it's on the heavy side. Mine came out at 5 lbs 4 oz, which makes for higher then ideal wing loading.
Good luck,

I jumped up and down on mine last weekend, took the mvvs 40 and radio out of it and put it in my better built pizza box. I can post pics if you'd like but they aren't pretty.

This is a really fun plane. You are going to have a ball. Even with a 4 channel radio the loops will amaze you! With flaperon mixing to elevator they will scare you! It may bite its own tail off! With those props you will have unlimited vertical. The plane will fly really slow, also. Don't use full throttle except for vertical! Wide open level can rip the tail off. Slow and wild is the key. Snaps are unbelievable, but be careful of your speed. Keep it slow, and amaze everyone watching.
This plane gets a bad rap as too heavy. It isn't in the Morris hobbies class, in $$ either! As a first profile it is great fun. I had a OS 61 on my last one. I braced my tail feathers (you can buy a tail wire brace kit from dubro or someone.)
Have fun!
