Default katanaP engine?

hi,

i have a katanaP, not the OMP one but from someone else which is exactly the same. i need to get an engine for it..... i already have a saito91 and was thinking whether it's a good idea to use that or buy a saito72. there's only a 3oz difference between the 2 engines which is not a lot. so what to do... to spend money and buy the 72 or to use the 91?


thanks

If ya got it, fly it! Go for the 91.

A 91 will be more power than this plane will even need. My ARF is great with the Saito 72, I can't imagine it with a 91.

Check your ground clearance. I run a 14x4, and it sits pretty low. Just a thought...

I liked the 15x5W APC on mine. It snatched the 6 pound Funtana all over the sky.
