RE: Cowled Saito Question
No pump and the engine is inverted. Did a bunch of testing with the cowl off and it runs great, but does have the occasional loading up of fuel problem.

Cowled Saito Question
I've got 5 Saito's now, but this is my first cowled Saito (it's a 100). My question is about the occasional fuel load up after a run, causing a backfire when you try to start them - I know what to do - just pop the fuel line, open the throttle and give it a few spinns and the problem solved. But in a cowl with a fuel filler valve I can't pop the line off. Is there a solution to get excess fuel out of an engine without taking the whole cowl off and taking off the line? I thought about making a hole in the cowl to get a clamp on the line?, or maybe cut an acess door on the cowl to disconnect the line if necessary? Thanks in advance.

RE: 3D airframe for Saito 82
I've said it before and I'll say it again, the fun of flying a really good profile 3D plane is something that has to be experienced to be appreciated. Going back and forth here will not convince anyone. I can sit here and eat an orange - you do not know if it is a sweet orange, or a sour orange unless you taste it for yourself. I 100% agree with Dave and Junkie, and the rest of the profile gang. I discovered profile 3D planes about 10 years ago with the Morris offerings. All I knew at that time is that I had been flying almost every kind of RC plane for 10 years and was getting bored. I ordered the Sudokhoi video and saw Tony hovering and landing on a picnic table and that was it for me. The current generation of profiles such as the Mojo, Chinn Yak, LamYak and Sbach's to name a few, are even better than the 1st generation Morris planes. This has led to a ten year excitement that profile planes have brought me that is not dying out. I have 3 profiles under 40 size, 5 40 size profile 3D planes and one 60 size. All are a complete blast and have their own amazing qualities. It's a simple engineering fact of function over form. Anyone in the real engineering arena would pick function over form, but marketing people will always go the other way around and pick form over function. I think profile planes are beautiful, but the marketing world doesn't see it that way so the masses miss out on amazing performance.

RE: Any Patriot pics?
Yes, I know that about Webra. Still, there are plenty of good used ones on the for sale sites and NIB ones to be bought that people never used. I was just looking at Quickturns list, and it should definitely be listed with the ones he had.

Don't forget the Webra 50 or 55. Absolute screamers, while sipping only 10% fuel. Lightest in the class too.
