Default Re: 37% Ultimates

I am putting one of these together right now, and I am wondering if there is anyway to get an updated manuel for it. The old BME manuel is only for about 70% of this plane. I can figure it out but a new manuel would be nice for future planes. Also get ride of those vinyl graphics. Get something new. Put in a PAU decal.

I'm just about done with mine. The manual is the old version but it's accurate to the new one except a couple of points. The wing tubes & horizontal tubes.If you have any ?'s I'll help any way I can. If you go to RCU there is a lenghtly forum on this build. Chris

I am not having any problems putting it together. I just think it is a great plane and a really nice manual would top off the kit.

Hi everyone,

We now have the standoff mounts for the Ultimate and the DA-85. Total weight comes in right about 1.5 oz. Also includes the mounting bolts for those that are interested.

i could be wrong but i recall when i mounted my 85 that DA really wanted you to build a box and not use stand offs. I know we are all grown & make our own choices

The PAU stand off, once the pieces are assembled, are like a box providing support to the entire surface of the back of the engine.
DA recommended not to use the typical stand off that like aluminum posts at the four corners.

How are you going to cover it? What kind of covering are you going to use?

It will be red/white/black.

I'm not sure yet which brand covering. And no sneak peaks at the scheme.
