H9 ultimate? we fly ours with 157's but many people love the zdz210 in the nose! talk about a terrific plane! i 'm sorry about your compy loss! i lost a superxtra earlier in the year from a dead stick too (hardened clunk line in my tank!) my comparf yak is my favorite plane though! i'd first and foremost just suggest another one of those! or maybe the comparf pitts?

Thanks for the consolation.. I have a H9 Ultimate and actually robbed this engine from that plane... The combo flew awsome.. Hopefully someone has a 3.3 airframe out there thats had enough fun with it...That was 12 flights on this one ....

The 50% Clipped Cub is a ball of fun with the 210!

Different type of flying.... still a lot of fun though!

I second the Cub. I got the pleasure of watching this combo flown by Andy Kane a few weeks back at the Fly for Tots, and it was awesome!

The Carden 260 is nice!

Ask Mr. Mike, I am sure he will tell you all bout the plane.

You could get a BH 50% 540,260...strip it, make it lighter and it would fly gr8 w/ the 210 in it. I have been wrapping thoughts @ this also and use my DA 170.

Lots of people said my yak was too big for a 150/170, and that it would not fly well............
I have had many discussions about doing a BH 50% 540 w/ a 170 and tuned pipes, and if it can be made light enough, It would fly great , it's not that much bigger than my 40% Yak. Just a little food for thought, it would be alot of work that you may not be willing to do. JMO...
