RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Ain't that the dadgum truth!! I remember firing an airplane up one time, and during the runup to make sure all was good, I started seeing these screws dropping to pavement below the engine...what...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

One of the reasons why I'm just not into 2-strokes anymore, airplanes or motorcycles: narrow power band. You get some power, then all of a sudden, lots of it. One of the others is that I don't...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Yeah, the two-strokes do pack a lot of bang for the buck, so to speak. Heck, just look at Moto GP racing when they went from 2 to 4 stroke. The cc's almost doubled for the same punch.

But, I...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

I run Wildcat Premium Extra 15% Nitro (18% total oil) in my 100. Seems to do just fine, too...but maybe it's overkill. On the other hand, a guy in my club keeps telling me I need to be running 30%...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Hey gang,

I'm getting a Kyosho P-51D 90 that has an OS 1.20AX in it. I LOVE my Saito 100 Hellcat! I have a McDaniels glow driver in the Hellcat, and that 100 just spins up and starts with...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Thanks for the info. Here in Florida, this may be a bit of a challenge. A closet in the gagrage will be ok in the winter, but the summer heat and humidity will be a concern. No way will the wife...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Yes, I agree. I got to thinking, and getting a case just keeps me from having to make that many more trips to the LHS. I called 'em back, and they said they'd get a price for me. Depending upon...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

What's the proper way to store fuel? I may just go ahead and get a case. What the heck, on less thing I'll need to worry about a trip to the LHS for.

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Talked to my LHS today. He has Wildcat Heli, so I asked if he could get some Premium Extra in his next order. He launched into some long explanation about stocking fuel, order size, sales volumes,...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Are the rusted bearings from not using after-run oil? Or does just burning the fuel cause it? I agree I'm skeptical of the admonition on the jug, as well as the Morgan Fuel website, to NOT use...

I finally found Marvel Air Tool Oil...at Advance Auto Parts. They only had the small 4oz bottles, but at least it's a start. Corrosion X is good stuff for sure. I've got some ACF50. I wonder if...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

So, basically, what Morgan Fuels is putting out on their website is bad gouge. I wish my LHS would stock Wildcat Premium Extra.

Is 17% oil enough?...

Ok, the H9 Hellcat .60 is finished and ready to fly.

Based on the advice/opinions here, I picked up a gallon of Omega 15% today. I'm going to go with 50/50 ATF and air tool oil for an...

Thanks. I'll pass on the WC Helimix then. My LHS has Omega and CoolPower. Based on previous posts, I'll avoid the CP and go with Omega.
