The Saito 65 is a beautiful engine, and I am lucky to have one. I run all my engines, both 2 and 4, stroke on 5% nitro without any problems. All you need is enough to help the idle. The less you use, the longer the engine will last because it is quite corrosive. It has also become very expensive, and the higher the nitro level, the less actual fuel you get. Looks after these beauties as spares are becoming more difficult to source. 👍

These 4 stroke engines actually start much easier if you flip the prop backwards. The OS engines actually instruct you to flip the prop backwards in the manual. The valvetrain will not allow it to run backwards and the recoil from firing will snap the prop quickly back the other direction.

I did flood it to much upon starting but thank you I have heard that from other places to ☺️👍thank you for the tip

well, at least you use a stick. starters are silly. as pointed out... flip them backwards. prime, turn back to compression, then a light flick and they should start straight up... love saitos, but also hate saitos. that cam spur gear sound drives me nuts but its ok when theyre flying... OS runs a helical, much quieter.

What is the swept volume of this cool little engine??

Is the fuel regular gas with 15% oil or is it nitro ?

@rcsendandblast1579 2 ай бұрын

That is an excellent question. These engines are a 4 stroke motor. Built to perfection. This run is on Morgan’s Cool Power Fully synthetic model engine fuel. 15 percent oil. the rest synthetics castor and nitromethane Thanks for asking 👊😎
