Default Global Ultimate Biplane - Feedback?

Does anyone have any experience with this ARF biplane. I've seen pictures of it and it looks pretty nice. I have a Saito 80 sitting on the shelf looking for a home and it would be a nice fit in this plane.

Please post any info or feedback if you have any experience with/of this airplane.

Thank you very much!!!

type "Ultimate" in the search function and you'll see where several folks have commented on the Global Ultimate.

I love mine. It was quick to assemble as the wings are one piece.
The cowl is fiberglass and roomy.
You'll want to reinforce the landing gear mount brace with extra epoxy.

I flies straight and smooth and is gentle to land.

My YS .63 is plenty for great performance...your .80 will be very nice, though the nose weight will make for very stable flying. I recommend you either put your battery in the rear or add tail weight for even better aerobatic performance.

Go for it...HobbyPeople had them on sale for $169 recently...a good buy.
