Default Next project - Something for my Saito 72

I'm starting to thing about the Sig King Kobra. An oldie but a goody. I think I could take some weight out so it would perform with my engine. The Sig Citabria looks good too. If I could get an old Midwest 60 size Hots kit, that would be cool. Not looking for any particular airplane, just looking for a good project.

I like building from plans too, as long as cowlings, etc. are available. The Rich Uravitch Cessna 195 looks very nice, but it's a little too small I think.

Any suggestions?

I'm just about to complete my second SIG Somethin' Extra for my other Saito 72.

The best combination of engine and model I have ever come across, and a pleasure to build and fly.

Great Planes Ultra Sport +

Flies smooth like the King Kobra but gives you the ability to fly 3D as well.

Also, for the Saito .72 you should look at the Sig Kougar and not the King Kobra.....not enough engine for the King Kobra.

Ditto to what Mendes said. Also look at the GP Ultimate bipe.

I just finished a Goldberg Ultimate. With an Ultimate, Sukhoi, and Extra on the rack, I'm thinking more toward something with a high wing and more area. That Citabria is seeming more interesting all the time.

How about the CA models funky 40! That should be awsome with a saito 72! While not a high wing, but should be an absolute blast to fly!
