H9 Ultimate delivery date
 

The LHS was looking up the date for the Ultimate today and it was moved back to 9/10/03. So there are 3 more months to wait.

I hope not, the LHS here called them today and they said 20th of this month. Personally I think everyone at Horizon has not clue. Too bad, guess I will just finish the 3W 40% Extra

If it is truely a sept date, that means they have not even been shipped yet. But it would not be the first mistake in the system.

According to everyone, they are not even in the country yet, as of today.

When I say shipped , I mean from china.

Last info I got from Peter Goldsmith was late June. It may be that the LHS who was checking got availability since I'm told the 1st shipment has been sold out for some time now. So the Sept date may be correct in that's when they can actually get some if they ordered now. I don't know this for sure.. just speculation.

we go thru this every year with the new birds but somehow once they come out the heat dies down he he, because we start looking forward to another new bird that will arrive in 6 months. :confused: :eek:

Doug, We ordered mine from the store on the same day McConville annouced it on your board. It wasn't just put in the computer, it was done over the phone directly with the horizon rep. Then we ordered a second one the next day.

The 9/20/03 date could have been a mistake in the system also.

Well.. I've heard 6/20 on the Funtanas.. so maybe the 9/20 was just a fat fingered 6. I should know more later today.

I placed my order with my LHS a week and half ago. Horizon contacted him yesterday a gave a ship date of July 10th..
We will have to wait and see.....

I check the b/o date on the Funtana also. They did not list any date on that. The b/o list is updated twice a week at the store.

Asher whats left to do?

Ultimate setup ?
 

What radio and engine setup is everyone going with ? Im thinking a ZDZ 210 and Hitec 5945's.I cant see a 150 class engine providing enough power...

After watching Mike fly the prototype in Las Vegas last year, the DA-150 does in fact have the power to fly it very nicely. That's the engine I plan to put in myself. If I can figure out a way to put cannister mufflers in, I'll do that as well.

As for radio.. 8411's all the way.. but then you'd expect nothing less from me :D

Is there one or 2 elevator servos per elevator half? just curious, if the servos are mounted in the elevators since its a slab elevator, and not airfoiled.

H9 Ultimate delivery date
 

The configuration is as follows:

1 servo per elevator
2 servos per aileron
4 on the rudder

Is one servo per half enough? ie 5945 or 8411?

H9 Ultimate delivery date
 

A single 8411 is plenty.

Doug, Did you find out the scoop on delivery?

H9 Ultimate delivery date
 

No I didn't.. sorry. I think Pete is spending 100% of his time at the Aero Tow event there in Champaign.

I'll keep trying though.

Does anyone know if the Ultimate will take tuned cans or not?

with the control horn all the way inside, how does the outer part of the elevator not flex with just the one servo? Just seems like an easy place to get flutter.
