EF 58 Extra building/flying review,Electric vs glow

[CyprusJoe]

Donatas, those look really great! I have one of these with a saito 82 going in. Have you done much with your saito-powered one?

[cescoforte]

i bought one of this kind of a wild bird and i have a saito 91 brand new for it.
anyone experienced this combo ?
hope to hear !!
ciao francesco

Joe, time is problem, i did not had much chance to work on glow Extra, i will do this affter this weekend competition. I will be putting OS 70 surpas not Saito. I think it will ok, naturally not rocket but for basic 3D it should do work.

Francesco, im pretty sure with 91 saito you will have amazing trust, naturally it will have little bigger wingloading (again SFG might help for better stability), and some problems with right CG. What is weight of your engine with prop and mount?

i think saito 91's weight is similar of o.s.70 fs. saito is very light engine.
hope it will be fine

Hi Guys,

I have the extra with an OS91 in it and flies superb, had the engine anyway so i wasnt going to buy another. Anyway very happy, she's got some serious torque but with good throttle management flies very well. Just waiting to see how the light airframe handles a 91 and the battery to balance. The planes a real floater and just flies slow so well its unbeleivable.

Very happy

Mark

i think i shall be happy with my saito 91.
i am going in holiday and my plane will be ready in september, i am afraid.
ciao francesco
