Status: offline 		The difference between the saito 100 and the 120 is the amount of lead that you're going to add to balance the plane. Will the 100 flies th Skybolt? yes it does.

I build my planes from kit, and enjoy it a lot, but the house where I live right now does not allow me to built(no space) and I'm sure many people are in my actual situation, the only thing I would be able to put together right now is an ARF(short time using the dining table), it took me 3 month to finish my Skybolt and my wife will kick me out of the house by the 2nd week if I try to do it now.

So I'm in favor of the ARF, that is the only way many people will be able to get a new airplane and a happy wife at the same time, now for the storage that's a different post.

Status: offline 		I will post a picture of mine. It is in the early framing stages. I am getting an error when trying to upload. I plan to fly my skybolt with a Magnum 120 four stroke. I still do not have a cover scheme. Anyone have any ideas or pictures?

Status: offline 		Xplayer, just look at all these outstanding Bolts just on this thread. If it was ARFed we would only see one color, maybe two and they would all be the same thing. I understand that ARFs are cheaper to fly but other then that if I can find enough time to spend building anyone can, just A few minutes A day if that. I had my colors picked out for my master but after seeing these planes on this thread I am rethinking my plans. I was going with yellow and blue but that yellow and black really stands out. Just A thought at the moment, well see.

Status: offline 		Nice skybolt SMCK. Do you have any problem with the prop hitting the ground on landings,with that 1.08. What size prop do you use. I have an os 1.08 and I have a few ground stikes now and then.
