GreatPlanes UltraSport 40

[rvd]

Just wondering how many of you fly this airplane? I have one that was built from a kit about 3 years ago. There are a good flying plane but I have experimented with mine trying to get more out of it(more excitement).

I got a good setup with it now.. Snaps, lomcevaks, knife edge loops like crazy etc.
If anybody is interested in my setup for this plane let me know and i'll post everything from the cg, throws, and also which hole on the control horns the clevisis go through. (it does matter which hole for the rate if speed the control surface reaches maximum travel)

Just a little warning.. I fly my airplanes VERY responsive so if you are not comfortable with that don't bother but if you are then you will love it.

Give it a try, you won't believe what a ultrasport can do. hehe :)

Bought one about 8 years ago from a friend in Kirkland Lake (Not Andrew but he knows who I mean).

First thing I did was put it on floats, and fly it Darlington Park with the Oshawa Club.

I had heard they were stable, But, that is the plane to use to learn how to do low inverted passes.

Flying over glassy water with it was the best, seeing the reflection and not having to worry about bumps in the field or that little tuft of grass that grabs the Stab.

Definitly a great plane. :wink:
