Default RE: Saito 82 or 91 for WM Dago Red?

jzinckgra, I fly from a grass field. I used the fuel tank that was included with the plane. I think the size is 320 cc. I have only flew it about eight times, this last weekend. Just finished putting it together for the weekend. I did as Cyclic Hardover suggested and took out the retracts so I could put epoxy in those areas. I was careful with my landings because of others telling of their experience with bending the retracts with hard landings. I did end up with one landing I would consider less than perfect and it did put a slight bend in one of the retract wires. No big deal to carefully bend it back into position. I hope this helps. Good luck with whatever engine you choose. This is a fun plane to fly. I think it may even replace my Somethin' Extra as the plane I'll always take with me to the field.
