Katana S 50 cc from The World Models, Katana S180 from Protech, Katana S 140 from CMPro or Giant Scale Planes and many others have comparable wingspans. I am sure that a canopy is offered by one of...

RE: Four Star 60 building. By a 54 year old beginner.

You are showing the good sense that years of bending wrenches has taught you. If you get mad at it, deal with it tomorrow. Plus your customer cannot call your boss complaining that you are not...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Dude, do what the heli guys do and run a second tank.

RE: Four Star 60 building. By a 54 year old beginner.

It was 117 today, with thunderstorms. I won't even consider entering the garage when it is that hot. It is bad enough that I work in it.

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Funtanas:
Read the reports on both the 40 and 90 on the user reviews section. The 90 is a bit more docile than the 40. I had the 40 and loved it, after I got over the twitchies. My 40 had a FA91...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

It sounds like your fuel pressure is a little high at idle. I could be wrong here. How far off closed is the LS needle? Just for giggles take an extra piece of fuel tubing, shorter than your...

RE: My first build.

Silver Eagle is the owner and designer of these plans. He is real nice, if you don't mess with his website. Ask nicely and he will help you out.

Today, because it is over 100 degrees, I build for a while and then come inside to cool off for a while. Guess what I learned? The sheeting on the fin needs to extend below the first rib by a...
