moving the firewall back on a CG Ultimate..?
Robelander;
I ordered the "A" gear from Moose for the Ultimate that I am building. I did the recomended Harry Higley mods to the Ultimate. I hope to come in at around 8.5 lbs and the "A" gear should do just fine. That gear is strong.
On two other projects I used Moose gear and ordered two sets of gear "beefed up". He did this for a $5 up charge per set. I used these on a scratch built Hots, 84 inches, and a scratch built Edge 540, 80 inches. The Moose gear was advertised for 10 lbs but when I asked him to beef it up I told him that I needed at least 14 lbs of "bad landing" heavy duty gear. The gear has worked great. The Hots has had the gear tore out 3 times, bad landings, the gear has held up. I repaired and you would never know it. The gear still looks new.
For this Goldberg Ultimate I will use stock A gear, for a scratch built 62 inch Ultimate that I am building I will use Moose stock H9 Edge gear.
