The 95v and the 91 both have the same thread pitch and size. Not sure about the 1.20, I've got all 3 engines if you want me to compare them.

It will be fast with the 1.00 but with the right prop I think it will be fine, I've seen them powered with 1.20 four strokes and dle 20cc's as well, overpowered of course but still great flyers....

The 10 lbs was just a number off the top of my head, my point was that you would be making a good air frame heavier. That 1/2 lb would have to be counter balanced some how.
As for my firewall, I...

Oh, one more thing. With the OS 91 and a 6v battery mounted up front under the fuel tank required no added weight to balance. AUW is around 7.5 lbs. It flys great and lands like a Senior.

I'm still flying my Skybolt nearly every weekend. Mine, powered by an OS 91 S2, has more than enough power for anything I want to do. My question is, why would you want to take a 7 lb airplane and...

Nice, I like the added decals you put on. I see something that looks off. The ailerons, did you take the photo with the connector rod off or is there something different with your aileron setup?

I did the maiden flight this morning between rain showers and I think I'm in love with this plane. The Saito 82a worked great after it was broken in and tuned. Vertical performance was great with an...

My Skybolt is complete. Finished weight came out at 7# 6 oz., just over 18 oz. wing loading. No added weight with a 6v battery under the cowl to balance. Maiden flight will be this Saturday, weather...

Yes, I've got it nearly complete. I'm having to modify the engine mount to sit lower on the firewall. The Saito is narrower than the recommended OS engine and the mount bolt holes need to be slotted...

I had seriously considered using the 95v, I've already got an 85 degree manifold for it. I've also got a Saito 1.00 but I would have to swap it out of an Ultra Sport 60. The US 60 was my one and only...

It's a shame this thread has died off. The Super Skybolt is a beautiful plane.

Mine arrives today and I can't wait to get it in the air. I plan on using a Saito FA 82a that I picked up NIB. The 82...
