RE: Sig 1/3 Spacewalker

I have read through several pages of the Saito Gasser thread, and it
seems apparent to me that the 220 isn't the Saito dependable that
I would expect. I guess I will continue to pursue a 300...

RE: Sig 1/3 Spacewalker

What do you guys think about the new Saito 220 FS Gasser?

I'm pretty stoked about this motor for my Space Walker!

RE: Sig 1/3 Spacewalker

The 300 Gemini is not available[:o],
so I think I'll go with a G-45. I have
one in a GS TF P-51 & it is very
reliable & easy to start. But I really
like the price of the fuel.

RE: Sig 1/3 Spacewalker

I don't want to paint, either.

I'm going to use Worldtex.

DD,
What kind of fuel did you use in your 300's?

RE: Sig 1/3 Spacewalker

Dave,
Thanks for the input.
I can get the 300 for a great
price, & our OS engines have
always been the best. I guess
it's really a no brainer. There
are a lot of questions about the...

RE: Sig 1/3 Spacewalker

What do you guys think about an OS 300 twin
vs the Tartan. I have a line on a almost new
one for a really good price. I have a little
more confidence in the OS over the Tartan.
The OS would...

RE: Sig 1/3 Spacewalker

Ed,
Here is where I'm
at with my Tartan.

It's set up for glow with
a Walbro carb below on a
phenolic adapter with the reed
valves.

I knew nothing about this engine

I have not purchased the Tartan yet. I am

Ok,

twins for sale. I picked one up, today, to check it for
size & to do some research on the...

RE: Sig 1/3 Spacewalker

I really like the economy of the gas engines,
but I guess I should look at the glow twins/
4 cylinders. I just think that they will be
beyond my price range.
What size glow twin would you...

I don't want this thread to die!

I was intending to sell my GS Top Flite

RE: Sig 1/3 Spacewalker

I would love to do the traditional
starburst scheme, but I don't think
I'm up for it. Does anyone have pics
of other Spacewalker paint schemes?
I would entertain any suggestions!

I don't see the US 41 in Tower. Didn't they used
to sell those?
What about the Fuji BT-50SB? It's about $40
less than the G-45.
