37% Ultimates

[Oilsands]

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.

[Oilsands]

LOL, I can only dream of doing a paint job half that good.

Just thought I would share a pic of my Ultimate on final, 25 flights to date and getting better each and every flight. Hope yours is as fun as mine turned out to be.

[Flyfalcons]

Looking great, Skippy! Right now I can only dream about having some good weather like you guys are having.

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.

Thanks

The PAU 37% Ultimate uses 4.0 inch wheels.

[topflight36]

Thanks very much. I will let him know.

Well, it is all together other than the canopy (which I was waiting for the pilot, which I have and to make a dash which will be done next week). I am able to hook up the servos in a couple of different way to get them to all work correctly, but I am trying to have the crow feature as well. Trying to program the Rx and hooking up the servos to have that option is not going good. I may have to forget about having that option. I am using the futaba 10C with a SF Eq10. Really liking the SF Eq10, took a bit to figure out how to start programming it. But now that I have it figured out, it is very easy and quick to do. It sure gives you a lot of options in setup without a bunch of mixes being used on the Rx. Will get some photos up soon, on the work in the last week.

Here are some pictures while I completed the building last week. I got the pilot from HP Pilots, it weighs around 8 oz (if I recall correctly).

Looking good!

[Oilsands]

Thanks.
I am not sure if anyone else has used different wheels or are planning on using different wheels for their plane, but if you have the wheels that came with this and want to get get rid of them let me know. I know a guy who is looking for another pair of these wheels and is willing to buy them off of you.
