Default Mountain Dew 36% GL Hobbies Ultimate

Guys You know hard it is to find original and I am beside myself being a huge Dale Jr fan that I came across this. While visiting my father in forida I met some friends at his field and one of them took out this all painted no decals awesome ultimate. Not as light as must but when I flew it, Love was the first thing I thought of. From Imac to 3D it would do it. I only Have one pic but hope to pick it up on the 29th. I have decided to have both Dale JR's Signiture and Darell Waltrips on the bottom wing with "88" beside both. Just thought I would share a happy moment. See ya at the Nall and will update when I get with more photos in flight. The man who built and painted this bird Was pretty awesome with the green fade airbrush work. I hope to find out who did it. DO THE DEW!!!

This plane is pretty "unique" indeed.....I believe it started out with Bryan, the original owner, in Kansas, moved east to Arkansas with Steve and then ended up in Florida with Dennis.

I was really thinking hard about picking this one up when Bryan first posted it but ended up passing simply because I just had to much in the hangar already.....but wish I had made a deal. I'll upload the pics Bryan sent to me.

Here's the original ad on RCU..

http://www.rcuniverse.com/market/item.cfm?itemId=305618

I'd suggest sending an email or pm to the original seller Bryan for additional information on the build and custom paint job. You may also try getting ahold of Steve at 479-968-0568 or 479-264-7711, numbers he posted in his ad, and ask if he still has contact information for Bryan.

Hope this helps you out.....glad to see it found a home in the sunshine state.


Bill

You are 100% right that it came from Dennis and Alen in Port St. John. I had the chance to fly it and loved it. Its on the heavy side but it dosn't sem to bother the flight charicteristics at all. Thanks for the post. Would love some more pics.
