Hi everyone I've bben lurking here for awhile and got some great advice from you all and I fly an eagle II but want something better. Well I was just looking at ebay and I see this plane and it has a new OS engine with a radio and starter and a bunch or propelors and it sounds like a good price can you tell me if this plane would be good for me?

OK WHY NOT IT WORKS? HOW MUCH SHULD I OFFER HOW DOES EBAY WORKS? HERE IS WRITING:

Excellent Condition UltraStick 40 (aka Ugly Stick) with Lots of Accessories

COMES WITH EVERYTHING YOU SEE IN THE PICTURES


This is an Ultrastick (aka Ugly Stick) 40 with a NEW OS 46FX Engine and everything you need to fly immediately. This plane is really fast and aerobatic and has about 30 Flights. The OS 46FX puts out as much power as some .60's. It has a fantastic RPM range and great throttle response. This plane is complete and ready to go, just add gas. It comes with everything you see in the picture, a 4.8 volt receiver battery and all Futaba gear. Email with questions.

First thing you'll have to do is register on eBay. (Doesn't sound like you have.) Then you can bid on items.

I'd watch the bidding and see if it goes over the amount that you're willing to pay. (It very well may get higher than what it would cost you to buy at Tower Hobbies. Look at the shipping costs! I've seen amounts as high as $30 or $40.

Good Luck.

If you look at the tail of that plane you'll see that it's not actually an Ultrastick as the guy is advertising. The tail on and Ultrastick isn't rounded over like the traditional ugly stick is, but the tail on this plane is. Just thought that might be something someone that is interested in the plane should know.

Take a look at all the list prices of everything, and then cut it in half. That is about the top you should bid. I personally wouldn't go over about $200 plus shipping. You should be able to ship it all greyhound for about $35.

Make sure you ask the seller if he plans to "modify" the plane in any way for shipping.......I heard of a guy who recieved his plane with the TAIL CUT OFF so that it would fit in the box!!!!

I've seen better deals here at the "buy" forum... and more experienced people selling them... it's not auction format but you can barter with the person and make a resonable offer... and you can ask open questions and other eople can give there opinion... Just my opinion... Later
