Ok, I just went through most of the 250 pages of posts for this plane. The reason is: I am looking for a new plane. I finally did a brain fade on my funtana 50. I loved that plane but time to move on. I am curious if anyone has flown both the Funtana 40/50 and the U CAN Do 3D 46?? How do they compare ?? I have a couple of magnum 91 fs and that sounds like a good engine for the U can do. I was flying with a Saito 100 in the Funtana, but will save that motor for another project. I also have a Saito 80 that I could use in the Ucan do. Any comments of the Saito 80 versus the Magnum 91 FS for this plane ? thanks
Hey Pat, I've flown both the Funtana and the 46 Do. Didn't like the Funtana, love the U Can Do. They really are totally different planes and I've owned 4 U Can Do's and an only 1 Funtana's if that tells you anything.
I don't know about the Magnum 91 in the Do since I've always used a Saito 82 and like the 4 strokes in them better than 2 strokes but a 91 Magnum sounds like it would pull it along just fine.
The Saito 82's really are the perfect combo though. You mentioned Saito 80. Do you have an older 80 instead of the newer 82?
