Default Dave Patrick ULtimate 1.20 Bipe engine????

BEFORE I BUILD:

I have tried searching for a thread that has all the info on building "do's and don'ts" and can not seem to find it.


My new purple ulty is on its way, but I would like some pointers.


Can any one direct me to this post?


FYI: here is my set up:


DP ulty 120 purple
hitec 5625 digital for elev 130oz
hitec 5645 digital for rudder 160 oz
4 hitec econo digitals for ailerons, these only wiegh 1.4 oz vs .9 for mini, and they were only $32 each, resin gear.
new tail wheel
saito 150 ( a little less power than 180 but better on fuel )
4-40 ball links for servos.
4" alum spinner
6 v battery

My thought process on the wing servos is this: minis are expensive for digital, if I went with 4 standard digi I only added 2 oz and I do not have to mess with linkage for the 2 wings?!?!?

I have never seen one in person, but I am also tryin to limit my set up time
