Default Katana enigne????

My OMP Katana V2 will arrive tomorrow.
Whats the best 2 stroke/4 stroke for this plane?
Was thinking of an OS 70 four stroke, Or an OS 50 2 stroke.

Thanks,
Mark

Please do a search here on the profile forums. Your question has been answered many times. Both those motors will work. Saito .82 is IMHO the best 4-stroke choice. And well the OS .50SX is for me the best 2-stroke choice.

One good option would be the os 46 ax. I have that motor on the OMP 40 sized Edge and its more than enough. The motor is light and has great transition.

the OS 70 4 stroke is very good for it, i used it on mine, but a saito 82 would be even better! lighter and more powerful... here is a vid of mine with os 70
