Just can't understand why they wouldn't have made a pipe and canister tunnel. I put one into my Ohio RC 50 cc Ultimate and my Exclusiv Modellbau 50cc is set up for one.I think they missed the boat on this one?

wow looks great..if i could sell my carden yak id be all over that...pipe tunnels or not..Brian dont take offense but it sounds like you should design an ulti the way you want then build a factory to make them....Also of there is already an utli with a pipe tunnel then you already have what you want..Unless you just collect ultis?

It's not just the tunnel ? To access any radio gear or plumbing , wiring ETC you have to remove the wings And what a the specs Marks post says
SPECIFICATIONS

Wing span 76 inches.
Wing Area 1950
Weight 16 to 17 lbs
Engine 50cc

And the Aeroworks website says
SPECIFICATIONS

Wing Span 68 inches.
Wing Area 1666 sq. in.
Fuse Length (Rudder to Front of Cowl) 74"
Fuse Length (Rudder to Front of Spinner) 78.5"
Cowl Width 10"
Weight 16.5 to 17.5 lbs
Engine 50cc
Which is it?

Yes I'm thinking of maybe getting one but I would do some mods to suite me but really eight inches difference in wingspan and 300Square inches of wing area at the same weight is a big difference and I think Mark should correct it which one is it?

That is a beauty!!......Pitts muffler and smoke is the ticket for any Ultimate....save canisters and pipes for more-suited 3d'ers like Yaks and Extras.

That is a great looking plane. I have been itching to buy the Pitts but the weight has scared me off. If the Ultimate really comes in below 17# that would be great.

Preordered mine today,
Now I have to decide, 50cc gas or go old school and use my Saito 300. Hard to beat the sound of the Saito, but I sure do get tired of buying glow fuel. Gasser will have a little more power too. Got a while to decide!

Mark, Does it have a mount in the tail for rudder servo?

You can do many things very easily to lighten it up a bit....just put a little thought into it, and with out stripping and grinding. I'm even considering this as a throw around plane, of course it would get the magic dust sprinkled on it first. It's actually bigger than the last one they put out a few years back. I love my big yak, but its really a PITA to haul around.
