You are probably right that the Saito still has to work hard to get good performance.
What I don't understand is why people don't complain with the TopRC Zero with the FG90R3?
The Zero seems to be the same as the F190 in terms of weight and seize?
My TopRC Zero has the FG 84 with a Keleo exhaust. Performance is amazing. Super scaled out with a Full Cockpit detail. Frankly, I bet mine is on the heavier side .
Here it is at the US Scale Masters last year. Enjoy
