If you want a good .46 sized 3D/Pattern ship then look at the Global Freestyle. I have yet to find anything that comes close to matching its performance in both types of flying (very good at 3D, but not great....very good at pattern, but not great), especially for only $149.

Read the article and then decide...

Default RE: Getting started in 3D (best 4 stroke engine)

Hello everybody,

I have a Sebino Models Cap232 with a wingspan of 67 inch, wing loading 783,91 sqin and a weight of 7.05 lbs without motor but with all radio gear.

I would like to know what's the best 4 stroke engine for unlimited vertical (3d aerobatics). Saito 91 / 100 / 120. What do you think?


Sorry my english.

Thanks in advance.

Yea Saito 100 I dont theink they make a 120 anymore unless you have an older one around. 150 is the next size up dont know about that maybe a bit too much but Its defiantly a consideration. Very light and well running engines. I have a 100 on my Giles 7.5 lbs with a 15 x 6 and its got tons of power.

I' m back again.

what fuel do you use? In Portugal, nitro have a high price. Do you think 10% of nitro it's all right for saito 100?
