Guys,

I am aware that the Saito 125 may be a bit much. I was able to fly one a few weekends ago with a Saito 100 turning an APC 15X6 and it was just about perfect. The problem I have is I have either the 91 or the 125 and do not want to buy a new engine just for this especially since the 125 is still fairly new.

Since flying the one with the 100 I'm convinced that it would be just fine with the 125. Yep, it will be overpowered but I do practice throttle management and the 125 is lighter and almost the exact same size as the 100 so that will not be an issue.

I plan on getting a 3-blade for it for looks and ground clearance. I just finally got around to picking up the plane from the LHS.
