 |  73 inch Ultimate
Hi all, Just got my maidenflight with my brandnew ultimate.  Flew like it has never done anything else, didn't need to trim anything at all. The engine (DA50) also did a great job. Man, I already love this plane.

WOW 16.5 lbs. My WM Ultimate 63" wingspan weighs that much. You must build light to have 73" wings and a canister setup. How is the performance of the DA50 on a canister?

| Re: 73 inch Ultimate Been flying the plane the whole weekend, man I love it more and more. Engine does a great job, goes vertical unlimited. Even rolls are pretty straight (had to do some mixing for that), knife edge is simple, loopings can me giant and landings are like a trainer.Thank you all for liking the sheme.  |
