Super tigre 90
 
Got a super tigre 90 from one of the guys at the field that's getting out of the hobby due to poor eyesight. I know it's way to big for the cub I'm putting together, so what plane would be a good fit for a 90 size two stroke?? yeah, another excuse for to buy another airframe:D

It'll yank a 4-star or Tiger60 around with a little flair. I have one on an Astro Hog. Likes fuel.... Take your time tuning it and will be reliable.

basically anything that calls for a 60 2 stroke...great motor by the way.... my 4 star liked a 14x6apc prop best

I have a OS95 on my Big Stik 60. It flies great. I'd imagine the ST90 would work nicely as well.

I had the ST 90 in a Four Star 60, loved it!

A flying buddy of mine has the ST 90 on a U-Can-Do 60....loves it. It'll do anything he wants it to, and land like a feather.

got one in a GP Extra 300S (called a "60-90 size") Just the right amount of power if you ask me ;-)

I would second the choice of a Great Planes Big Stik 60.

I had a G90 in my first Big Stik, it flew wonderfully and had "unlimited vertical". That was, until I flew the plane into a pole.

I bought another Stick and I will probably "maiden" it over the weekend.

About the G90, many people try running them on high nitro fuel and have problems. While they can run well on high nitro, really they don't need it and will run very nicely on little or no nitro.

Bye, Ian

The G90 has the case and intake of a .61, but with the bigger displacement. It's meant to add some extra torque to any .60 size airframe. So basically any aerobatic or speed oriented plane built for a .60 is a good choice.

There are three versions of the Super Tiger 90

The oldest is the S90 It has a round sunken machined head and the front bearing housing is removable

The S90K has a squarish four bolt head but the bottom of the crankcase is made like the S 90 with a removable front bearing housing

The current G90 in both Italian and Chinese versions has thw Squarish head and a one piece crankcase. It have a bigger rear bearing than the other two.

I had some G90's and I ran a APC 14 X 6 prop and they turned 11,000 rpm.
