Default RE: Composite-ARF Lightning Build Thread


ORIGINAL: pfact

Sandor,

Will your trailing link struts fit into the new Ultra-Lightning wing?

We are waiting for our Ultra-Lightning to arrive - we probably won't see it before late Summer since they are not yet done with the new mold for the modified fuse. Several of the old lightning's at our field used P-160's and found that the increased weight and residual thrust were too much for the Behotec brakes. Can you recommend a system with more power than the Behotec's offered by C-ARF? We plan to use a P-160SX.

Phil


our new oleo,s do fit the ultra lightning wing , infact the first set went to someone who owns a new UL.

yes you need a larger brake system for more brake power
i suggest you use the jet-1A wheels for that
they have 110mm wheels and large brake setups.
and they use diskbrake instead of the pushout o-rings
they do fit our lightning struts also.
