About 80" with that saito but keep it light and it should 3D good.

An 80" extra is gonna weigh at least 13-14 pounds minimum. No way a 150 saito is gonna be a good 3-D with that. If you want 80" and true unlimited 3-D then your gonna need a 40-50cc gas engine is my guess.

Even the ARF Extras that are 74" are minimally 3-D with the saito 150. Good aerobatics but defentliy not unlimited 3-D in that size.

tnx u all
i said saito 180! not 150....
and i think to built it 74" like the exstra 300S of greatplans..

I have the GP 300S Gene Soucy 74" wingspan with an OS 1.60 and it's a nice plane with lots of power - but not for unlimited 3D. Big thread on it over in the ARF section. Most people wound up with a plane that weighs 13 to 13.5 pounds.

Even with a saito 1.80 I can't see it being "unlimited" 3-D but everyone has a different definition of what that is.
