Many thanks for your kind comments Jeff. I like flying this plane a lot as it carrys a bit of weight with it and this adds to stability. The wee Saito engine never misses a beat and always runs smooth. Regards Aidan.
Thanks Jeff for your kind comments. I do enjoy flying that plane as it is a bit heavier than some of my other planes and this can give it a bit more stability.
I have watched a good number of your planes now, and you very well behaved engines. Most of my engines, both 2 and 4 stroke run quite well, however I have two Saito engines that don't run well with low nitro content fuel. Do you mind me asking how much nitro you use in you fuel? Both of my OS .91 four strokes run well with no nitro and my Thunder Tiger .91 four stroke runs best without nitro. But those Saito's won't. They run but not reliably.
Thanks Robert for your kind comments . All my Saito engines run really well and I never have a problem with any of them. I use the same fuel for all my engines that has a 12 percent nitro content and 18 percent synthetic oil. The Saitos tick over at a very low idle and the only time they stop running is when they are out of fuel. But I find that 12 percent is just about right. I hope this helps Robert and any other questions you have feel free to ask. Kind regards Aidan.
@@easystar123 Thank you Aidan. That pretty much concurs with what I experience. My two Saito engines (a .62 and an .82) run well on 12 to 15% nitro but not with any less. Fortunately they are easy on fuel but I can;t get away without purchasing fuel from the hobby shop.
Just a habit of a lifetime using a glove when starting the engine. Been doing that 38 years now and gives me peace of mind when operating round a propeller. Many thanks for watching.
