Hey Guys,
I converted my FA-125A Saito to gas one year ago.
The oil gas mixture I used is 1:25 (synthetic oil).
It has burned about 20 litres gas now, and there was a lot of carbon in exhaust pipe and outlet valve.
The ignition is a "Runtronic mini" it has a weight of 50g + 1 Lipo cell 800mAh.
The engine mount was a square block of aluminium which I milled down to 58g.
It replaces the rear cover of the crankcase.
Fuel tank is 150ml. All over wheigt of plane is 3.9Kg.
I was going to start up my FG 20 this past weekend but did not have everything ready and I am kind of delaying after reading about so much trouble people are having. It seems people are happy with the FG 36 which has the Walbro carb on it instead of the two needle Saito gas carb. So benr1014 I would be interested to know also what carb you ended up with and if it was much trouble attaching it to the FA 125? Great job on the engine mount by the way.
