Welcome (back!) to the Ultimate bipe club! I think it would be nice to have a super thread or two on this awesome ( I think!) bipe. Your a bit braver than I right now with the low stuff...

Yeah they are fun. a little tricky trimming out at first, but a blast. Funny enough, that was my second time getting that low, but it is addictive! Once that plane sets in, she settles in nicely.

Keep adding to this thread guys! I am on the fence with this plane. I have wanted it ever since I laid eyes on her. Nothing is more nostalgic than a large yellow biplane like my father had when I was only just knee high. This H9 ultimate is like the larger than life image I've had in my minds eye since I was a kid. Damn that thing is beautiful. I need a place to fly it. I'm getting it. sh#$%^t i really do need a place to fly something this large. I have 340 acres but the landing strip is only so so . I'm ordering it............... |

What size and type motor did you end up going with? Did you change the gear and pants? Looks like CF but could be paint. As for set up , how did you find it to dial in . Anything adverse to look out for? Quique somenzinni was in my town a few months ago and flew Jack Price's ( duralite batteries) Ultimate and I would be interested to see what his take was on this plane. I do know that when Mike MCconville was designing this plane he did make a few key changes . Extending the tail moment and lowering the height of the top wing to name a few. All of this to reduce pitch and roll coupling issues that most biplanes normally suffer from. Thanks, Mark |

Hey Leblanc, think I could fit it into the garage? I'd just have to convince my wife that it'll be the last plane I get. Told her that I couldn't save for the boat with this damn thing for the ultimate. I got to get it out of the way first. |
