 Re: Funtana and saito
I had the old yellow funtana 90 and a saito 100 for over a year and probably put 30 gallons through it and it was a great combination. I had to stick a big nimh 5 cell on a stick out next to the engine to get it to balance and the engine needed to be leaned out all the way to give decent vertical performance but it flew well and I could hover and do all the tricks in the book all day long.
If you have that engine already the funtana would be a good plane for it but there are much better airplanes out right now that would be better suited.
what sucks is that you have to use 30% nitro and right now it is like $25 a gallon and more in some places. It was not that expensive for me a couple of years ago but I would deffinately use a 2 stroke now if I could, maybe an os 120ax or something like that.
