Once in the past I had a katana v2 but the small one .46 with a saito 100, it was awesome, really too much power, hovered almost at hiddle.

syma, if you have the 70katana, dont put a 46 on it... I put a ST90 2 stroke on mine, good combo, a 91 4c would work well also.

I dont know, I dont usually weigh my planes, but it flies light, and is fun. You will enjoy it! Mine is a V1 and so far so good.

Sorry for useing an old thread but I got my 70 V2 only now.I put ST90 in it and have tried 16X4W ,14X6,14X4w 80/20 meth /castor fuel,new engine, apparently no way it will hover at even 90%throttle ! Does not seem to like nitro ! RPM figures are 16X4W=7500,14X6=9000,14X4W=9600full throttle. How did you hover at half throttle please ?

Mine hovers no problem with awesome vertical, are you flying on top of a mountain? Go buy some 15% fuel and fly it.
