RE: saito 150 fuel changing

After run oil is not needed for an engine being used regularly on weekends and IMO it makes more damage than good for the engine because an engine will not be 100% dry after a flight even if the fuel...

RE: OS .108 VS ST 90 pow diff?

For normal aerobatic flying with big loops and rolls this engine will power that plane nice but if you are into hovering or 3D i would recommend a fourstroke, Saito180.

RE: Super Tigre G-90 With A Pipe

RE: OS .108 VS ST 90 pow diff?

ST are a little on the heavy side but i am a little surprised that the G2300 "23cc" is heavier than a DLE30cc? Maybe ST needs to redesign the engine line and shave of some dead weight?:) However the...

RE: I prefer 2 strokes

A twostroke on a tuned pipe is best for high speed dive when you really push the airplane and punish the engine at WOT and it sounds as it gonna explode any time:D Small sized twostrokes on a muffler...

RE: Flying time OS 95AX vs Saito 100

OS twostrokes are good but as mentioned before the Saito fourstrokes are more reliable and for that reason alone i would use a Saito for a Yak54 specially if you do 3D or hovering. I use a 16oz on my...

RE: OS .108 VS ST 90 pow diff?

Hi,

OS108 was one of the best running and most reliable twostroke glow engines i had much because of the 7D carb. And you can thrust mounting this engine on a airplane you like. The OS120AX...

RE: OS fs-120III w/pump vs Saito fa-125a

RE: Super Tigre G-90 With A Pipe

Yes, if the engine does not responds so well to adjusting the main needle, or sounds rough on wot, then the compression probably is too high and would be better with an extra head shim.

RE: Super Tigre G-90 With A Pipe

Nice results! A slightly longer pipeheader is always a good idea. I have had better succes with OS-F plugs on my 90 or larger twostrokes. It can clean up the midrange slightly and give more explosive...

RE: Tuned pipe question
