Which SAITO do you all recommend for the UCD .46? I want to spend as little as possible... but i want a GOOD RELIABLE engine.
I have heard that the FA-100 works well, but seems like overkill... Do any of you have the 91? any impressions?
Thanks, i know there are posts on this here, but I dont want to sift through 50000 posts for a simple question...

The only reason I am considering that poweful a plant, is because they are so light, and people are saying that they have needed a lot of noseweight anyway.... But it would be very nice to save money and get a smaller one... Anyone have the 72? Thanks again

Got a .91 in mine. Can't imagine why you would need more power than it gives. Hovers at around 1/3 throttle. The little extra weight over the .72 allows you to balance it easier. Fits perfectly in the cowl, too.

Are you stuck on Saito? I have a Magnum 91 FS on mine, balances with the battery pack and hovers at a third with a 15x4 prop and costs a lot less. Very reliable to say the least.

How about the new Saito 82 due out next month? Not much difference in price. [
