Hello all,  I would like to be a member of the brotherhood,  I acquired my ultimate last year and its been a fun to fly.  I also have a question for the brotherhood.  I did not build the ultimate i have but did acquire a kit to build some time down the line it has to get in line.  Anyway the ultimate was built with a Y pushrod for the elevator and pull pull on the rudder.  When i pull back hard on the elevator i notice a that it also rolls when this is done.  When i get it up on the bench and checked the deflections i notice that when fully deflected one half moves more then another in the order of a degree.  This is usually not a problem until i start to really push the plane around.  I know i can mix it out with the radio but i don't really want to do that.  No real reason i just don't.  So i think my two options are to add a addition servo and have a dedicated pushrod for each elevator half.  Or set up a pull pull on the elevator using one servo.  I have a couple of ideas on how to do a pull pull but was wondering if anyone has any suggestions or pictures?

Thanks

Tom

Hey guys. Building a new one to rplace a crashed one. Any suggestions on the back turtle deck. I wet the 1/32 ply and it still cracked at the fin. Thought of running a few stringers and balsa sheet it.

I live in Australia and want to sell my CG Ultimate, I have a Saito 120 in it and it is awesome. I'm selling it otherwise I would of hung it from the ceiling in the hobby room. The wife said to sell it if I'm not going to fly it anymore, fair enough I reckon.

Hello All,

I'm planning to maiden my Ultimate tomorrow. Any suggestions?

Some details, I bought it used, so it's flown before, but tomorrow will be first flight by me. The rx is new so it will have to be re-trimmed. I had added a fairly heavy pilot, which since it sits way aft of the CG, caused the plane to be a tad tail heavy. However, I moved the rx battery from behind the throttle servo to under the fuel tank, which has the CG now perfectly at the recommended 60mm from LE. I added 40% expo to all surfaces. Throws are around 35 degrees on high rates, which is significantly greater than the ones mentioned in the manual (which prescribes a max of only 14 degrees). They are lowered to 75% on low rates (so around 26 degrees). This is the 60.5'' wingspan ARF, AUW is roughly 12lbs, engine is OS160 two stroke, 16x10 prop, 20oz tank.

Would appreciate all suggestions, particularly those related to throws/handling and landing (hot/fast?). Thanks.

Ultimate is back in work. It will be powered by a Hacker 50-16L, CC 100 ICE and, 8s-4000. I'm just going to call it the Clorex Ultimate. It will fly crisp and clean lines!!!
