Default Which engine in a TopCap

My Top Cap is almost ready should I use my new OS 46 fx a Magnum 80 4 stroke or a YS 91 4 stroke ?

I agree about the search feature. We have discussed this airplane a lot. There a lot of threads here in the fun fly forum about why motor, what servos.

As I said before and I will say it again. use a YS 63. Way to much motor, But isn't nice to have the that much power.

A YS 91 would be way to heavy, and way to much power. If you use a YS 91 on it get ready to buy you another top cap because you will pull the plane apart.

I just finished my top cap like ten minutes ago and it has a tt46 pro. Will this hover it. Does anyone know. I plan on flying it tommorow and then I'll see how it does.

I agree with John, the 12.25x3.75 is a hover prop!!
