Keeps it very light (and thats important!) as opposed to trying to overpower it w/ a large engine and adding weight.

    By the way, I've oredered Saito 100 and Funtana 90 last week. Horizon said Funtana 90 will be in by the end of May. I hope the date stands.

    Thanks Mike!! Appreciate the input..Do you feel you can get good performance with 15% and the 100 or do you have to go with higher nitro?

    Status: offline     		Saito 100- I usually run 30% nitro in all of my 4-strokes, and thats what I ran in the 100 in the Funtana.

    Size- Someone mentioned that this is similar to the kit Desert sells. Actualy that is Sebastiano's original Funtana which is a 2m model for typical pattern setups. Seba was running a YS 140DZ in that for a while. Currently I believe hes gone ep with it and is using a HAcker C50XL setup.
    Our Funtana 90 is smaller than that. Its sized for 90-100 4-strokes. I like the Saito 100. Seba (who worked with us on the Funtana 40 and 90 development) has been running the YS110 in his. His comments after flying the final version of the 90 was that t flew better than his original 2m model.

    Funtana vs Katana. Not really a clean comparison. The Funtana is based on Seba's TOC Katana, but changed in many ways to make it lighter loaded and better 3D. Its not a scale Katana and isnt within any 10% deviation rule. BTW, Seba's TOC Katana takes the 10% deviation rule to the limits (have you ever seen a full scale Katana?). Basically, the Funtana is optimized for flight performance w/o any consideration to staying within and scale deviation limits.
