Default Inverted mounting of Saito FA-82a

Hi to all,

I am wondering if you can mount the Saito FA-82a in the inverted position. I was hoping someone might have some input. Plane is a TF 310 Cessna.

Thanks in Advance,
Tracy

rc-hide-n-hope,

I run a Saito .82 in my GP Reactor with no problems. You do have to lean the low end out just a tad bit more than if you were running it upright or horizonal.

I also have a Saito .82 in a GP Reactor inverted and it works great.

THANKS TO ALL!
If I remember my threads correctly I believe you have some prior experience with this bird MinnFlyer. The 310 thread has been a gold mine of info. Again, thanks to all for your help.

Yep, I don't keep a lot of the planes I review, but that one is definitely a keeper!
