Goldberg Extreme & Saito .72
I was wondering if anyone had tried the Goldberg Extreme with a Saito .72? If so please let me know how it worked and if any special requirements, prop, etc. TIA

Thanks Much
Thanks for your replies. The Goldberg Extreme with a Saito .72 and the right prop sounds like just the right combo. I dug the Saito out of the box, found another receiver and servos, misc. & etc. and I will pick up the plane on Monday. Thanks again.

I think a 6 pitch prop is WAY too much for this plane/engine combo because it willll make the plane too fast at full throttle, ergo, creating flutter.
The 4 pitch will keep the top speed down, and the wide blade giving it better thrust and smoother transition for hovering.
They don't call the "W" funfly props for nothing.
Good luck,
Mike
