Status: offline 		I installed my Saito in a Yellow Sukhoi and flew it for several flights. While I loved the scale sound, I could not recommend this engine for a acro bird. I was turning an APC 16x8 at about 9K on 30% nitro heli fuel. On 15% I would get about 8500. These are about the same numbers I get on my G-23. I think the B-25 was designed with g-23's in mind, so it should work out okay, if the scale details don't get too heavy.

Status: offline 		No, I flew my Sukhoi with the Saito 170R3 at first. I replaced it with an OS 160 FX. It was too cool. Sold it to a friend and I have missed it ever since. It would fly on a G-23, but the OS is a much better choice.
