Default Recommend a 3rd plane that will take a Saito 91

Hi again guys.

After planting the Skyshark Fantasy firmly into the ground, I took the advice of MinnFlyer and others and picked myself up a Midwest Aerobat and TT Pro 46. Wow what a combo. All day today guys kept coming up saying "I'd never have thought THAT plane could move like that." That thing can fly.

So while I challenge myself and learn with the Aerobat (my 2nd plane), what should I be building now as my next bird? I'm gettin that builders itch (the Aerobat is an ARF) and need somewhere to put the surviving Saito 91. I have a BTE Delta Vortex sitting on my shelf unopened, but fear that will be too much plane for me at this stage in my flying career. Your opinion?

Thanks again guys for all the wonderful help.

PS: I've read here often how the Ultra Stick Lite can be converted to gas easily and (relatively) cheaply. I don't think the USL comes in a kit though...I am interested in going gas sooner or later... is now the time? (and put the Saito back on the shelf for a later time?)

If you want aerobatics, I would look towards a Cap 232 or Extra 300. Great Planes Extra 300s 60 size will fly well with the .91. Midwest has the little cap 232, which is more expensive though.

I will second the Great Planes 60 size Extra 300. It's a very good build, excellent flier, and it will be a good match for your Saito 91

Have I steered you wrong yet?
