Default RE: BTE Venture 60 kits shipping soon!

Anybody got their kit yet?My bench is all cleaned up and ready to go.I'll be putting a OS75AX or a Saito 100 in mine.Anyway was I just wondering about this kit.Later
Jim.
Either engine would be fine. I ran my Venture with an OS 70 four-stroke and then on a whim a Saito 125. The 125 is the same weight as the 100. The airplane handled the engine well and the vertical, well you can only guess how straight up and out of sight it would fly. However, the vibration finally started taking its toll on the airframe(CA hinges, etc.) If the 75 is lighter, which I suspect, that would be my choice. The 75 will have more than enough power. Below are pics of my Venture with both motors.
