Default ultimate jets welcomes joe grice and kirk jensen as our field reps

we are excited to announce that joe grice and kirk jensen are our fied reps. both are accomplished modelors. joe is a top gun winner as well and kirk is an engineer. both will have their own blog on our website shortly. you will be able to see their builds and ask technical questions too. there is another major announcement coming in a week or so.

lastly, if anyone at rcu can assist me in buying a banner on this site. i have been unsuccessful in reaching anyone here in the last three months. even rcken's attempt was fruitless.

thx, barry

Barry takes care of braces for the airplane in case of an accident. So yes, dream team indeed ;-)

shaz, you asked where do i fit in? i am the "hey boy". i sweep up the balsa dust from these gifted modelors and i make sure the restrooms are clean.

seriously, its an honor to be associated with this group of guys. our goal is to carry and promote high quality products and show the newbie or average modelor that he or she can build the models of their dreams. we will support them in any way we can. even though we may carry a specific brand, our group has built darn near every kit out there and we can offer them support as well. lets keep the hobby fun. barry

ps shaz, congrats on your sabre maiden. that landing was sweet. it looked like you were at sea level with that flare.

We have to see, nothing definate yet. John keep on saving money as he sent his son to a 180 000 usd pilot school! We just talked about it and we will give you feedback. We just sent in us visa for my wife and she is interviewed beginning of July. Man, it's hard to get appointment in that embassy. Anyhow, it's in the plans. Ola is keen, thati know. Odd is a busy grandfather and HD biker now. He is doing the route66 next year, really doubt he is coming. Jørn mentioned that we let him in on the plans and also another fellow Ulf seems to be keen. So lets see when summer is coming. We all wanna be there, that's for sure.

Congrats on Topgun by the way :-)

John just bought a c&c 2x2 mb339, desperately need a cheap bf-100. Give him an offer he can't refuse for tx pickup only ;-)

Buck - Let's do it! I heard you had a Gator that was about done. I am dying to see it.

Oistein- They are all still proudly displayed in my shop. Just let me know in advance when you want them down and ready for you to prep them to fly at Bomber. I can't wait for September!

Joe and Kirk blogs added:
http://www.ultimate-jets.net/blogs/joe-grices-blog
http://www.ultimate-jets.net/blogs/kirk-jensens-blog

I will update you guys when new articles are being posted.

From my side, the next ones to come are the Scorpion build update, then a full article on flight control and servo torque requirements with the description on how to use the calculation spread sheet.
All our kits on the web site will have this spread sheet populated and available to every customer in the download section.
I will also make an article on how to compute an all flying stabilizer pivot point and servo torque requirement and how to simulate the airflow and center of lift excursions using QFLR5.
