Default RE: Seagull Ultimate

Maidened mine here this weekend. Needed NO trim after take off. Beef up the hardware if your gonna get rough with it. I mounted an MDS 148 and it moves. The issue is the shakes on the ground I had to re ca, and locktite every damn thing, price to pay for larger engine. Structurally all I did was put some screws in the firewall sides and epoxy. Axel loosened up on first flight and tipped wheel pants which is anticipated. Luckily it tipped back. In either case a very nice flying plane. I couldnt rip into it on a second flight because a senior member crashed his Bobcat type plane with turbine.. suffice it to say the rest of the day the hunt was on..

We did find it. Its too gorey to post details.
