Would the Ultra Stick .60 do 3D manuvers and most important will it Hover Hanger9 UltraStick with .90FX???

I had a H9 Ultra Stick w/Tower .75. It would hover, but still lacked sufficient power to pull out with authority. I also increased the elevator surface area.

I own an Ultra Stick 60 with a Magnum 91 4 stroke and it will hover at approx. 1/2 throttle. Use a low pitch large diameter prop. This plane hovers and will torque roll very easily, But will
not do all 3D mauevers such as waterfalls and hangar keyholes.
Good Luck

This plane has the control surface area and, therefore the ability, to do everything and then some. You do have to properly set it up and some of the maneuvers are trickier than others. The only manueuver that I have tried that has not been too successful has been the knife edge -- I'm still working on it. I'm not yet into 3D except for hover attempts so I cannot provide a definitive review on that capability. As I stated above, this plane has the control surface sizing you need for 3D and therefore should be capable of it.

I'm running with a Saito FA-100 and it will hover at about 1/2 throttle and pull out with authority. I fully expect the OS FX .91 will give you an equal or better capability. Use the right prop.

I've been flying mine for about 3 months with a MS Scimitar 14x8. Tonight will be my first flight with an APC 15x6 after I switch out the 2.75" tires for 3.5".

No.

Had the 60 size powered with Magnum .91 4 stroke and APC 13 x 6 prop. Unlimited vertical, but 3D is not there. Knife edge can be performed, but you will need two mixes: Elevator to rudder and aileron to rudder.

I gave up on it before trying the mixes. It makes a good trainer, no bad tendancies like snapping.

I moved on to the Laser 3D 40. I am still learning 3D, and this is THE plane to learn it on, I am told.

If you want a plane thats fun to fly,then the US will fill the ticket. If you want a 3 D'er, then keep on looking.
Have a goodun,John

Wow...what prop are you using???? I couldn't get mine to hover at full throttle.....

The US60 is a great lets fly the whole tank rolling and looping and not get over 15 ft off the ground or lets touch the clouds and drop back to idle and see if it stays up for 20 minutes before getting back down or lets fly backwards into a 5 mph headwind or lets see what crazy things we can do with crow or whatever else makes your prop spin on any given flight. What it is not is a 3D plane or a pattern type plane.

That said, if you can't find something to make every flight entertaining with a ultra stick, well you just didn't try very hard.
