I will have a Saito 100 soon that will need a new ride as well.
The Spectrum has a reputation for coming apart in flight. The Venus or Aresti would be better choices in ARF's or the Great Planes Ultra Sport 40+ if you want to build.

I have seen a few ARF at local shops that would be nice for the Saito 100.
