Default two models-two engines ?????

Ok, so I went a little nuts and bought a saito 91, a KB 60, a u can do 46, and a CB super chip[munk (60).

I originally thought that I would put the saito in the u can do for obscene amounts of power. But the more I think about it I can see myself doing a highspeed fly by and have the control surfaces disintigrate.

Anybody know how the u can do will fly with the KB 60?

Thanks!

One word: Lackluster. Put the 91 in it. You won't be dissapointed!

Since they are new, why not take the KB60 back and get another 91?

Go with the Saito in the U CAN DO, just be sure to use a large diameter- low pitch prop to prevent excessive speed.

Here's what I would do...

Put the 91 in the chippie, and return the 60 for an engine suited to the UCD like a 52 2-stroke, or (better yet) an OS 70 or Saito 72 4-Stroke. The UCD's work VERY well with the engines they are designed for.

I guess I should have said that both engines are used

the .91 4S would make the cipmunk sound super cool.. I'm just wondering if I'm going to be able to hover effectively with the KB 61 2s in the u can do? It would be wonderful to have saito 91's in both of them..but I guess it would also be wonderful not to pay $850/month in child support. [:@]

I wouldn't even go so far as to say the UCD would hover at all with the 60...

The K&B is not what you want on the UCD, mine was not great with a MAG 61 and really lacked for my style of flying, it was ok and that is what the UCD is not about! Have a Mag 91 FS on it and love it, no power problem, he, he.
