Hi all I bought a used DP Ultimate could someone be kind and give me the low and hight rates for this bird. Thanks!

umm..which size ultimate is it?

Oh that's right I keep forgetting they make 2 sizes now. It's the 120 sized Ultimate.

Sorry Cap....I can't help you then. I have it's little brother.

I can't believe nobody has a Dave Patrick Ultimate 120 sized that can give me control throws from their manual. Oh well I will find the info somewhere else. Thanks anyways!

Dude,
I have got one, but the manual is at home right now, and I am at work. If I remember I will get them for you and post tomorrow.

Also, what engine are you using? I have a Saito 1.80 bolted on, and am in the middle of assembly right now. I have heard it will balance on the nose-heavy side with the Saito, has anyone else experienced this?

Saw your thread the other day and thought for sure you would have had them by now..here they are.

Thanks RCJones I'm going to fly her tomorrow.

ShakeyJake, mine is fitted with a Moki 1.80 and yes it's a tad nose heavy.

I have got the Ready-to-cover version. I had heard that it typically comes out a little nose heavy, so I mounted dual elevator servos in the tail.

I was also able to easily double bevel the horizontal and vertical stabs.

Other than that, pretty much stock. I should be covering by the end of this weekend!

I just did the arc and it was tail heavy with a Saito 150. I put 4oz in the cowl and am slowly taking them out. It may not be really that tail heavy but it seemed that way to me. Better safe than sorry I figured. Hate to go up with a tailheavy bird.
