The increase in sound and fury over my old little 15cc Saito R3 is incredible! Mounting large heat sinks to the case between cylinders is a great idea; sure makes it look like a more complex (7, 9 cylinder) from a glance, and you can probably run it harder, too.

Very nice plane, flying, transmitter, engine, landing etc
I Love It. That model has some POWER like the real Deal.
She sounds so sweet!
I'm thinking of get a kit of the lochhead p38jm lighting with twin 60cc radial engines from Perth in December
Sick!!!!
Beautiful
Jolly good, I might just order one. Cheers.
Pappy looks hungover.
Awesome aircraft,love the saitos. How's the engine been running in so far. No problems with no baffles.
No problems to date... except our weather here in the UK, cold wet and windy!
Sweet Sound of a Saito, Can i ask what size fuel tank are you using. 24 oz - 32 oz ???
Now that you have had it for a bit, how do you like the new Saito? That Idle sound is just golden!
Harry, the aircraft owner/pilot, loves the engine. It's still running slightly rich ...
Why two blades only?
Almost stuck fingers in prop ....Ouch
No. Of cylinder please...
Do you know roughly how much it weighs? Which prop did you use?
Always amazes me that people can afford thousands of dollars for an R/C plane but can't spend 50 cents on a piece of foam for their microphone.
Or a pair of gloves!
where you find the spinner ?:D
Harry, the pilot, made the spinner in his workshop.
He turned down and drilled/tapped a piece of aluminium round bar.
How much nose weight did you have to add?
No extra weight was added. The three batteries, ignition, receiver and retracts are mounted towards the firewall. Balances and flies well...
It would sound better without that keleo muffler.
