RE: Spacewalker vs Four-Star 120

RE: Another Venture 60 Completed

Knife edge flight is improved, it will do it at a slower speed probably due to the increased side area in front and canopy moved forward, I can also get it to loop.

RE: Widebody?

Has anyone used a Saito 100 on a 8 lb pattern plane? I may be thinking about getting the Epsilon over the Widebody and just wondering if the 100 will pull the plane with real good vertical.

RE: Widebody 60 Questions

Going from my Saito 120 experience I would go with a 15x8 or 16x6, both work well for pulling power, the 15x8 spins up just a bit faster, I switched to the 16x6 to help slow the plane for landing on...

I had thought about the Epsilon also with a Saito 125.
