Default Showtime 4-d 90

Hi i have bought the showtime 90 and i was wondering would the OS .61fx engine work pretty good with it? and also i bought the 13x6 prop with it would that prop give me really good climb? and that would work too right?

you want at minimum a 90 2stroke
the saito 100 was barely enough. I would go with like a 1.20 two stroke.

Ive heard that the YS 110 is the ticket. I put a YS 140 in mine because the 140 replaced the 120....its WAY over powered and it is not floaty at all.

Well i went to southeast rc hobbies and the guy their said that the .61 os engine is perfect for the plane just get the right prop, and plus the .91 os engine and the .61 Os engine have almost the same RPM so i think i should still be able to climb good and do well 3-d aerobatics with it! am i right?

If you are going to 3d excuse me 4d with that plane you are going to regret it. I have a Saito 125 in mine and it is a little over power A LITTLE . Take the engine back in my opinion

Just get yourself a Saito 125. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT! If you go with the 61, you are going to have to add nose wieght to get it to balance right. With the extra weight, you are not going to be able to 3D. But with a 125, you will not need any balance weight and will have perfect power. There is also a YS 120 for sale in the swap shop you may want to consider.
