Default RE: Ultra Stick Lite 120 ARF by Hangar 9

Mrcoolpop,

I've had several US120 Lites with engines including a Saito 180 (Way too much motor), Saito 120 (excellent combination) and my last one I put a Rimfire 160 on the front of it and ran it on 10s 5000 mAh Flightpower batteries. I have to admit that my favorite of the three was the electric version. Also a friend of mine built one and put a 3W28 on the front. AWESOME is the only word to describe that combination. It would hover at just over 1/4 throttle. My US120 Lite was probably my favorite all around, any weather plane...........................

Hey Aerotony,

If you don't have any luck with plans for a Stick and you decide to get a kit, look into Aircraft Model Research (AMR) in Canada. They offer a 30cc size Stick kit that is only slightly larger that the US120. The kits are a little on the heavy side, but the quality is second to none. I've considered getting their 30cc size and putting my Rimfire on it, but I'd probably go up to 12S so I can turn a larger prop due to the extra weight of the plane.

Good luck Fella's
