NEW PLANE HELP
 
Hi

How are you guys doing. I was wondering if you guys had any good ideas. This will be my 5th plane. I would like to try to tack a bi plane this time. I am looking for a 60 size plane preferably a bi plane for my Saito 91.

Iam looking for something that is unique and a good flyer.

The plane that are out of the question to me are.

1. Fourstar
2. Spacewalker
3. Extras and Edges.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Scott

Scott IMHO the best flying bipe that will work well with your engine is the Goldberg Ultimate. This is a plane everyone should own in their hanger.

I second the GP Super Skybolt. Fantastic flyer! Perfect for a Saito 91.

Just to throw out a different suggestion, while acknowledging that the Skybolt would be a wonderful choice, I'm going to point to the World Models Ultimate 90:

It's available in yellow too, if you don't happen to like purple. :)

I have the kit that I got burnt out on and never finished; mayby I'll get re-motivated. The ARF looks so good though that I may just have to break down and buy one.

Hi

Thanks for the help guys. I think i will be going with the Super Skybolt. I had the 91 in my cap 580 but i decided to hold it back for something else. I have always liked the quality of Great Planes kits. I always wanted to try a bi plane and this one looks pretty good. Does anybody know what the total flying weight of this arf.

Thanks Scott

My Super Skybolt with a OS91fs comes in right at 8 lbs.
