I have been flying the GP Venus 40 this summer while I get the Focus 
finished and trimmed.  I have used a saito 72 in mine.  I had a similar 
experience.  This is a great flying model and the 70 four stroke is a 
very good match.  I found the fuel tank that came with the model was 
too big.  I just do not need enough fuel to fly the schedule three 
times before landing.  So I put a 10 oz tank in mine.  I used the new 
version of the GP tank and it works just fine with the saito.  I was 
running a 12X8 APC prop at 9900 RPM of YS blend.  Changed over to a 
Bolly clubman 13.5X6 ar 9600 and it has better vertical and runs 
slower.  Give it a try.
