saito 91 on the OMP 47" edge?
what would happen if i put the saito 91 on the OMP 47" edge? i've been flying the edge with a os50sx and for some reason the engine has never run properly.
i have the 91 lying around and was wondering if i could use it

Are you sure the .50 is not just still running in? I have a .50 on my little Yak and I can confirm what many others at my club has found and that is that the OS .50sx takes a wee while to show its true colours. I'd say at least 40 tanks or so. Also make sure you have absolutely no air in the fuel line. I had some troubles with the remote needle letting minute air bubbles in. That'll make it run funky!

spacey ...... i've had the OS for more then 2 years now ( and more then 40 flights on it ) and it's never run properly. i've even put another remote needle on it but with no luck.
mike, thanks for the suggestion. i'm first going to try the saito - edge combo and if it goes horribly wrong then i'll start thinking of another plane.

tiktock, I'm one of the many running the 50sx. Spacey is rite it takes awhile for it to come in, 40 flights should have done it. Maybe a fluke bad engine. No flame job intended but a Saito 91 is [X(] alot of engine for this plane. I can't say I can handle mine anything like Spacey can, but this plane doesn't need anymore than a 50sx, If running rite.
Hey what the hell do we know, its yours.........Hammer down,
