You Can DO 3D preformance?
 
Coomarlin,
I thought about trying to mix out the coupling, but after flying and experimenting have decided that it isn't worth it because sometimes it pitches to the belly and sometimes it pitches to the canopy. I'm willing to bet that if I move my CG to 4-1/2 from 6-1/8" that the coupling will decrease, but all other flight maneuvers would suffer.

You Can DO 3D preformance?
 
I'm running Wildcat Premium Xtra 15%. I may try increasing the nitro, but for right now I just want to get more hours on the engine. I've gota case of the wildcat to run through and after that I thought about maybe trying YS 20/20. But even at 15% the Saito has a ton of power.

Falcon-
My UCD pitched toward the canopy every time. I'll just have to play around with it more. I'll try mixing it and see what happens.

Hey there, coomarlin -

I've got about the same set-up. Not sure which fuel you're using, but I was formerly running a 2/4 stroke synthetic that Wildcat produces for Hobbytown and loved it. I've run it for a long time on my Saito 72 (different plane), but I'm now running the Omega 30% Cool Power - Pink - in my UCD / Saito 100. Oh yeah... there's a difference! I definitely recommending it and your 100 will pull out of the hover even better!
