They were discontinued a year or two ago, but there should be a number of UltraSport 40’s out there. I bet most bought were never built and still in the box. I bought a few US 60’s for future builds. Wish I would have bought a US 40 too

Good luck

I’m currently prepping the Gus Ozol’s Salient Designs (spelling?) Boxer series of pattern planes from the 90’s for foam core wing/balsa ply fuse construction. .45 / .60 / .90 / 1.20 sizes... The .90 and 1.20 are 4-stroke powered.

I am in the process of designing a 40 size pattern plane, I am having a super tiger 51 ring engine in the box.. I a planning to use that engine for this plane.. The length 57 inches & wingspan would be 55 inches.. I am working on the design of the wing.. and the fuselage outline. Once that is done will start the construction of the prototype

I am using the plans for an Insight and scaling it down about 20% (50" wing span). Not all dimensions need to be reduced however. Reduced fuse length by 1". Increased vertical stab height.
