Hello Alfredo,
I have the Zen 90 and in my opinion it fly’s very well.
I have a YS 91FZ and it has plenty of vertical. ( currently flying the advance sequence )
With the YS 110 it will fly even better because of the power increase with the YS 110.
I think the power difference between these two engine is about 25 %.
Hope this help you decide,

I've been flying a Tai Ji for about a year with a YS91 and love it. The Swallow is a great plane for the price, but I think the Tai Ji or the Zen both fly a little better.

Hi Here is my 2 cents,
Take a look at the Viper 91 by Zimpro, Very light wood ARC plane with carbon fiber options if you want. Here is the web site www.pub.nxs.net/dhunt
The plane will take the YS without a problem and also has fixed gear, here are some pixs.

I have a Tai Ji with a YS 91FZ. It's a wonderful plane, but I did have a few issues. The retracts that came with it are useless. Replace it with a Bolly fixed gear. Also, the canopy is really weak. I have painted and fiberglassed mine to keep it from cracking. The Tai Ji is fairly light for its size. Mine weights 8lbs 4oz.
I have flown a Swallow with a YS 91FZ. It flies nicely, but it is heavy. . . more than 9lbs. With a YS 110, it should be fine.
I would strongly recommend you consider the Quest from Creek Hobbies. It's only $250 and I understand that it flies very well. I believe it's a 9lb plane too, but the YS 110 should haul it.
Good luck!
