Default Finally flew my DPM Ultimate 40!

Good point on the servo relocation. Your method is easier. I had even considered it myself. Come to think I'm not sure why I decided to go with YSMAN's method. Oh well, both work well.

Well I am glad I didn't get the Kyosho Pitts, this was my other choice. I have heard from only 2 people but both disliked it. The other guy had a Saito 56 and said it was underpowered and didn't fly well.

I would not use a Saito 90 on the DPM Ultimate 40. It will be way too much power. Mine climbs vertical as far as I want with a Saito 72 around 1/2 throttle using an APC 12x8. It would hover at 1/2 throttle too if I could. This is a fantastic flying airplane, and it's light.

If you want a nice ARF for that Saito 90 consider looking at the Vector Flight lineup. The Edge or Extra they sell will be my next plane and I am thinking of a Saito 90 for it. www.vectorflight.com. They have good prices, are made in North America and have good reviews here on RCU.
