I everybody! First, sorry my bad english! I´m brazilian !!!

I saw a lot things about the Hangar´s 9 Funtana S 90, but I don´t know yet how this plane really flys with the O.S. 120 Surpass III w/pump!

The best engine for this models is the Y.S. 110 Fz with (+or-) 2,16 horsepower.
The O.S. 120 Surpass III w/pump have 2,1 BHP and more weight than Y.S.110.

But the airplane needs some weght in nose to stay balance, so we have almost the same power in the same weight.

Well, that´s my question: What performance this models have whit the O.S. engine??

thanks and até mais pessoal!!!!

My YS 1.10FZ on my FT90 is extemely strong!! It amazes me everytime I fly it. My FT90 RTF (without fuel) weighs 8.62 lbs. My YS 1.10FZ spins a APC 16x4 @ 10,300. According to Thrusthp calculations, this is producing 20.86 static thrust lb. I have bought a APC 16x6 to get the RPM down some, but I haven't installed the prop yet (Rainy weather). The 16x4 was used to break in the engine also. This engine/prop combo hovers the FT90 at 1/2 throttle or a little less. Vertical pull is very good @ 2 - 3 clicks above 1/2 throttle. Not sure if I have a stronger than normal motor, but the performance is mind blowing. Vertically unchallanged now, so the 16x6 should improve the vertical pull out even more.

The YS 1.10FZ will probably be a little stronger than the OS 1.20. The YS has been compared to the Saito 150. Don't get too caught up in HP numbers. HP ratings doesn't mean too much in this hobby. HP sells cars, Torque wins races. The 1.10FZ has a ton of torque for it's size. For the sake of numbers. Let's look, The YS 1.10FZ has 2.2hp, the Saito 120 has 2.2hp and the Saito 1.50 has 2.5hp but the YS will run rings around the Saito 120 and does compete with the Saito 150 although the 150 has a higher hp rating. The YS engine is a true performance engine such as a Porsche or any high performance vehicle. The YS even has different shape intake (larger) and exhaust valves where most RC engines have the same size valves for both. A YS currently is the strongest in it's class.

alright!! So, I´ll sell my O.S.!! Tanks for help!!

Até mais, amigo!

I just happen to have this ST2300 w/Perry pump/carb setup and Slimline muffler laying around waiting for an airplane an low and behold, mamma got me an early X-mas present.
I am going to use a 17x6 wood Zinger for starters. Havn't seen any post of people using this engine but if they can run a Saito 1.80 surely this ST2300 would be just about right. I have to modify the engine mount to fit this wide of crankcase and the rest of it looks pretty generic from there. Reinforced the aileron rib and hard mount and am going to go with double wire diamond on the stab to keep it from flexing. All up seems to be a well engineered kit. My firewall will need to be pinned and reinforced also. I can see day light between the firewall and box side. I am using a set of Bolly c.f. FAI large gear and with the light weight foam wheels is 1.5 oz lighter then the smaller and more flimsy alum gear and rubber wheels it comes with. These Bolly gear are very forgiving yet spring back every time and they dampen rough terrain very well plus I will be able to use up to an 18" prop with plenty of clearance.
The OS 1.60 will have to have the fuel tank behind the firewall with good muffler pressure for good consistant runs.
I had to get a Dave Brown 1.20 size mount for my engine as the stock set are to narrow. The OS is even wider then the ST and
would require using the supplied mounts and redrilling the mounting holes. The OS 1.60 would certainly be OVERKILL and I thought I was bad for concidering the ST2300. Like they say....aint no substitute for cubic inches....heh! heh!

Now If I can keep the thing in one piece.

I will post some flight reports and photo's as I go.

I was hoping it was the Saito 1.50, thats what I am going to put on mine this week.

Well I just installed a new Saito 1.80 in my Funtana. Removed Saito 1.00. Flying with the 1.00 is not a good. It will fly it but try to do any 3D thing and if you goof there isn't reserve power to save you.

I had reinforced fire wall before with tri stock inside. I did pin fire wall on the sides with 3/32 wire drilled in about 1 1/2" and West epoxy.

Put a few tanks of fuel through it on test stand. HOLY SMOKES!! this is going to be fun. APC 18X6W prop. 20 oz. tank. I had my battery and 4 oz. of weight up front next to motor to balance with the 1.00.

I also have a Saito 1.80 in the FT90. Talk about fun! Great performance, 18x6W prop, great combo..
Although I fly at altitude and need to overpower from the manufacturers recomended power plant specs. Unless I just wanted to fly in circles.[sm=thumbdown.gif]

SAITO 1.50, great combo:
No added weight for balancing. Using stock tank, I fly 13 minutes. Plane flies almost hands off inverted.
Nothing wrong with the 1.80 either.
For both engines, it does take throttle management to not shake the plane to pieces.
My F-90 is the only plane I enjoy flying as much as my large gassers.

Hello, I am a new member and I could not resist tossing my 2 cents worth in. First off, I love how we are all seeking power for this plane..I definately agree. It was built to fly, just not fly fast...All the reviews and wreckage stories I've read have pointed to speed being a major factor in the crash factor.....As for motors I've called and asked jsut about everbody I could about the right motor and so far all agree the ys 1.10 with pitts muffler is the way to go. However, these motors are selling faster than they are being manufactured. I am here in Polson, MT and I talked to Central Hobbies in Billings yesterday...they told me their stock sold out in I believe it was a week or less....Holy Cow...She said wait would be 2+ months for new stock...Good thing our winters are long and hard.

Welcome to the RCU forums SADmember.
What altitude do you fly at in MT?

How do guys compare ys 110 to the webra 120. I am helping to assemble a F-90 and we have a webra 120 and are trying to decide which mount to use. The stock mount had to be shaved but now I am not sure of the integrity. What mount have you gone with using the bigger engines? Were you able to use the stock blind nuts in the firewall?
Also, the webra did not come with a prop recommendation. What props would be ideal?

guys i put the 1.60 fx in my funtana with a 17x6 apc prop the power is so crasy it pulls like no other. i haven't seen another funtana yet but man this little beast is bad to the bone

islandflyer,

which prop(s) have you tried with the 150? i've tried the 16x4W and its just not enough. i'm thinking 16x6 or 17x6 and would appreciate your input.

islandflyer

flasher,

16x6 works great for me.

Happy flying!

I flew mine with the 16x6 APC. I was very satisfied with the engine performance. But I know it would handle the 17x6 easily. I fly at 4800 ft elevation and need a lot of power so I stayed with the 16x6. It handled the F90 great as far as power, hover, flat spin etc. but I still didn't like the plane very well.
Thanks,
Barry
