Default Best gasser for my Hurricane

I have a nice scratch built Hurricane.
It's 220cm wingspan and weigth is 6kg
I would really lika the new Saito 220 4 stroke gasser, but cant find it, it's out of stock were ever I look.

Any other ideas.

Thanks

I don't think the new Saito is even available yet, that's why you can't find one....

How about this?

http://www.rcshowcase.com/html/ZDZ/zdz40re.html

It's not a four stroke, about the same size, lighter, and has a rear exhaust which should be just the ticket for a Warbird install...

Oh, Horizon's website is showing them in stock, but I don't think Horizon will ship over the pond and their website is a bit notorius for inaccuracies when it comes to what is actually in stock.

Thanks for yor answer.
So is the rcs 50VT be overkill, I like the sound it have.
And I need the weight in the front.

Thanks

I know where there is one. It is at the local hobby shop here in North Canton Ohio. If you would like, we can work something out to get it to you. It is sitting in the case, five blocks from me. It looks very sweet, but she is not cheap. I will PM you.

BTW, I think this is an interesting new option for warbirds. The four stroke has to sound cool, It would be very torquey for those big scale looking props, and these planes usually could use the extra weight up front anyway.
