Double ought seven could stand for wins ties losses. I think I'd stick to 700 just in case.

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Not meaning to brag or anything, (well maybe a little), I just picked up a beautiful new 60 size Super Sportster with a new FA-91GK mounted on it. Never flown or run. The sad part is the man who...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Thanks for the info. I'll pick up both a 17X8 and 18X8 and try them both. I'm must agree about the 6-10 prop, it seems to be a 10 when you need a 6, and a 6 when you need a 10. If it hadn,t already...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

I am running a 18X6-10 prop on a Saito 1.80 and it seems to be overloading the engine. I'm getting around 6800 -7K RPM with this prop but it just sounds like it's overloading the engine.

Any...

Could that be causing all the problems. I've never heard of anyone having this much problem out of a Saito.

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Well, run across another 18-8 prop and was lucky I had two nuts in my garage that I could use temporarily until I get the correct nuts. Started the 1.80 again, but it wouldn't do anything past half...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Well, that’s it, I'm officially disgusted. Put a 18 X 8 prop on my Saito 1.80 today, got it started and was running really rich, bought it back to idle so I could get around it to set the high...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Great, thanks everyone for the advice, next step replace the prop. Any suggestions for prop size, it is on a 120 size Christen Eagle coming in at around 13 pounds.

Once again thanks to everyone....

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

No, actually I didn't. I pulled the cowl off to check my glow plug which is when I found my glow battery was weak. I left the cowl off so it should be easy to check the fuel lines and screws though....

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Help! I finally had a chance to start my Saito 180 today, but I'm not familiar with 4 stroke operation, this is my first one.

This has been the longest coldest winter we have had in about 25-30 years, and have broken snowfall records from the seventies. Last year we did get a day here and there that were in the upper...

I'm cold and no way am I flying in this weather. About 14" of snow since yesterday, but we did make it to 26 degrees F today. Did go to an R/C Expo and swap meet today, not much there this year,...

Hey we all make excuses sometimes. Me, I've got three planes to get ready for spring, two are ARF's still in the box. The third just needs some TLC, you know stuff on a second hand plane you just...

That's the way the weather has been here since back in December, or so it seems. Today I can actually see some of my yard for the first time too.
