I haven't seen any follow-up psotings on the Tango with Saito .82. First off, I got the ARF and you dang near shake it out of the box 95% built. I tried to install a Saito 82 but the mount that comes with it and the achor nuts are not wide spaced enough so it ends up over 5 inches firewall to prop drive (manual calls for 4 inches). The next thing is the .82 with needle to the right puts the throttle link in the center so you need to install another throttle link over the tank. With the needle to the right side on the .82 the throttle hits the fuselage so you need to both cut out clearance and install another throttle link on the left side of the airplane. To use the installed throttle tube and ARF intructions, a two stroke is best. I decided to use the .82 on another airplane and intall a .55 AX. Using the two stroke means box to flying is only delayed by glueing the windshield.

I have not flown mine but did see one with a GMS 47 hovering, spinning and having fun so I think a good .46 up is all that is needed to enjoy.
