ck,

While running my 4th tank of fuel through my Saito 120 today, I timed it. I got about 14-15 minutes out of that tank of fuel. Now it wasn't WOT the whole time. I mainly had the throttle at about 1/2, with some WOT bursts and a few moments at idle. I figure with this much power, I will be at 1/2 throttle or a bit higher during most of the flight. I also scrapped the stock tank and installed a Dubro 16 oz. tank. After talking to several flying buddies that fly Saito's, I should be able to get about 10 minutes on a tank of fuel. Only time will tell.
