Default Uproar 60

Would this make a good 2nd plane. I like the 60 size over the 40 and wnt to put a OS61 fx in it.
Just thought someone may have done this.
Thanks[sm=sunsmiley.gif]

Prophanger1, how big is your giant Uproar? I have the 40 size one and Id like to blow the plans up to a bigger size. By how much did you enlarge the plans?

Thanks

i didn;t it's a kit a friend makes it's a fiberglass fuse foam core wing and you cut all the wood parts the kit is 125 dollars and worth it it has plug in wings on a tube

the wing is 80 or 82 and it's about 70 inches long weight 8 pounds dry if you want a big uproar . i will give you his number he could tell you what size he blew it up i think like 90% they are a big plane.

The uproar is a great kit and flys awsome. Never found it to have any bad habbits. The 60 would rock!

I built a .60 Uproar this past summer. It wasn't my second plane but it could have been my trainer with the right instructor and the throws on low rates. I powered mine with a .61 Thunder Tiger. I extended the rudder by 1.5 inches and reversed the radio hatch so I could add a canopy( the .60 size doesn't come with a canopy). I also upgraded the main landing gear as well. And added sheeting to the outside wing tip and the inner wing section to gain strength and a better place for the covering to stick to. With my throws turned up a bit and a bigger engine such as a .91 size it would be a monster. With a .61 it is a solid fun plane to fly. Below is mine with my beautiful daughter holding it up.

P.S. I have seen the .90 size Uproar fly and it is a great flyer. One of our club members also has one here in McMinnville.

I've flown both. The 60 had a 91 4-stroker in it and was rock solid. Hovered it a bit. Really needs a tad bigger rudder. The 40 was solid too and handles wind great.
