Since my magic extra literally bit the dust I'm sitting with a saito 72. Sounds like it may be a bit underpowered for the Funtana 40... Any thoughts on what would be the best ARF to put this 72 on to do some 3D?

Sure. How about putting it in MY Funtana!

[8D] if you don;'t mind profiles morris makes some good ones like the top cap knife and the funtana with 30% fuel

I can't imagine the funtana being underpowered with the Saito 72. I have one on my freestyle with is about the same size and weight and the performance is out of sight.

My Funtana goes from takeoff to 3-400 ft at about 3/4 throttle with a .72 I like 'em just fine.

I can use another one if you wanna sell it

shoot. I'm flying at 5000' feet. I alway's need to over power a little up here. still cant choose between the saito 100 or the 72.
what altitude you fly at cstevec?

I live near the Chesapeake bay. Id guess aroubnd 100-150 ft above sea level. Great for flying........ bad for humidity.

And that's kinda the rub with the 72 on a funtana here at 4400'. My buddy put a OS 1.20 on and it rockets outta site and flies well. I'm just thinking that the 72 will be underpowered at our elevation.

Wow, I cant imagine an O.S. 1.20 on a Funtana!! Must weigh a ton... my Saito .72 powered Funtana feels like a pig at 5.5lbs, till my tank is half empty, then if feels good LOL. I'll bet the power at your altitude is probably equal to that of a Saito 100 at a 1107' feet like I am, just seems huge for that plane Thats what makes this hobby fun though, being a little nutzo now and then!
