I had that engine in a .40 size Cub. It wasn't powerful enough for it. A .60-.70 4 stroke will be the right size. If you are thinking of using a Magnum, go ahead with the .70. If you're willing to spring for a Saito, a .62 will work great. All that said, I'd stick with the 2 stroke in the Avistar. There's no real performance to be gained by going the 4 stroke route, and an Avistar is meant to be a simple and relaxing flyer. The .40-.46 2 stroke is really the best engine for it.
