It is looking a lot more like one. LOL. Trying to take my time so that I don't have them all done and still waiting months before the maidens. There is lots of snow here, but it is starting to go fast.

I've got to get working on mine to get it done. Still only done 1 elevator. Ryan has sold me on sending my cowl in for some custom paint though similar to his Edge. Not sure what yet but I'll send my designs to the guy and see if he has any ideas and what he needs from me.

I am looking at doing something simular after I seen a photo of a real ultimate just after getting this one, only in decal form (sharks teeth). The custom air brushing is very nice to say the least. There is a guy in Abbottsford, BC that is just finishing a custom paint job on a jet for a guy in Germany, here is the link http://www.rccanada.ca/rccforum/showthread.php?t=86295

Anthony, are you thinking of airbrushing that shark's mouth yourself? If not I can get you in touch with the guy that did my Sarge paint on my Edge.

I am sure I will have fun with mine once the snow is gone, should be another month. What control linkage measurements are you using and what throws? Almost done mine, just need to hook up the rudder pull pull system, finish making the servo extensions, adjust the linkages, install the pilot and canopy and double checks all the nuts and bolts.

Thats my buddy Jeremy, been thinking about having him shoot paint on something of mine, if I can get him to do it. I was there watching him shoot some of the paint on that bird.
