RE: Great planes ultimate 160

JT, you will want to do the wheel pants mod, if your flying off grass. Thats too pretty to crack them up. Which will happen in 1 or 2 flights without the mod.

RE: Great planes ultimate 160

The kit comes with a polished 4" aluminum spinner. Usually needs balanced, but is a nice piece.

RE: Great planes ultimate 160

I had to ad around 1.5 ounces of epoxy (inside the wing tip) to balance laterally. Big difference. I hid the hole with one of the star decals.

Chuck, that line is a pulse line and the diaphram is actually your fuel pump. The line should be connected to the intake nipple (should have one). The pulses from the intake pump the diaphram and...

RE: Great planes ultimate 160

I use the stock tank with my 35 cc glow. My timer is set for 15 minutes of 3/4-full throttle. Probably land with 1/4 tank everytime. So 20 minutes would be deadstick.
