Default RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

G'day OF. No, but I have taken it out of the box. It is very pretty but my wife said it was ugly. They really don't understand.

I have just been in the shed looking at putting it in my old Goldberg Cub but I have decided not to. Too many mods needed. So then I looked at putting it in my ARF Kadet Senior and I have started doing this. I will use the KS to run it in (after some bench running first) and get to know it before putting it into the new Cub once I get it built which knowing me will take a couple of months. Now I have to find a suitable colour scheme that is not Yellow. I have nothing against yellow, most of my planes have some yellow on them but I would like this one to be a bit different.

Photos are of the Lanzo Bomber with its Saito 62 and its little cousin the Heron Gas Buggy from an Airsail kit. If I manage to get the Buggy flying well, I am considering putting my Peter Burford BP 033 diesel in it. As it is, it flies easily on about 1/3 power and the PB 033 will swing its 6x3 prop at 11,300rpm and its 6 x 4 at 10,300. Should be an interesting experiment. Not a Saito, though I could put a Saito sticker on the model.
