RE: Satio 100
I hate to burst your bubble, but when I first got my Saito 100, I was all excited and people at the field, who had bought many Saitos in the past, were all complaining about Saito and how their quality had gone down, they said they would only buy O.S. now after all of the problems with the Saitos they were having. I know another instructor who bought a brand new Saito, it was messed up from the get go, he hates it, he said he will never buy another Saito.
You call it trash talking, I call it the truth. Not to mention, when the warranty claims 3 year warranty and then they don't stand by it, that is B.S.
My O.S. 91 surpass (4 stroke) is 100% realiable, heavier and not as powerful as the Saito 100 that falls apart all the time...so do I run with an engine that starts and runs everytime or a Saito that is lighter and falls apart and dies all the time?
Sorry to burst your Saito Bubble...I was there once, I had on blinders defending Saito against the masses...then I got to go through the broken Saito BS and no support from Horizon and now I have switched to O.S. My last try was the other day with the Saito 100 again, on my stick and the muffler would fall out after every flight, causing 2 deadsticks during flight and one crash on my part...put my O.S.91 back on the stick after repairing it, flew it no problems, nothing falling off, no oil all over the frickin place, no dead sticks...do the math folks...take off the rosie glasses.
