Default CA Epsilon on a Saito 1.0

Anyone flown this combo?

Specifically, I want to know how the vertical performance is. Will it do a upline snap and keep going or will that kill all of the airspeed?

Any info will be appreciated.

That is a good question and I'll be waiting to see if anyone responds. There is a Widebody 60 at the club with an OS .90 two stroke. It has unlimited vertical and does snaps on the up line. The Epsilon shows to be about a pound heavier. Maybe the Saito would pull it fine with the right low pitch prop....after the engine is broken in well. I was thinking of putting the Saito .91 on an Epsilon if it is under the tree next month...unless CA Models releases a 40 sized version.

I plan to give it a go. I have a 100 looking for a new home, and think this would make a good place for it. I would aim to make it as light as possible, the Saito helps of course by being lighter than all the other engines used in this plane.
