Default U-Can-Do-3D for G2

I am looking for a U-Can-Do 3D airplane file for the G2 flight sim. Does anyone have one or know where I can get it? The RealFlight Swap page doesn't have one that I could find.
Thanks.

flyhuntfish,
G2 is a closed software design as far as airplane designs. Only Great Planes or their contractors can add airplanes. If they come out with another Add-on it will then probably contain the UCANDO's, but I bet that it will be a while since the last one just was introduced.

Gary,
I was under the impression that anyone could copy, edit, and tweak any airplane that already exists on G2 or one of its add-ons, then put a new scheme on it and rename it. Then they can submit their creation to the Realflight swap page for others to download and enjoy. That was what I had hoped someone else had done. Since they haven't, if I get some time soon I will attempt to do it myself. I would probably use the spacewalker as the baseline and edit it to match the U-Can-Do specs.

Yes, you are correct regarding the existing planes in G2. I thought you wanted a "model" that actually looked like a UCD.

I'm actually more interested in one that closely resembles the UCD regarding it's flight characteristics. It doesn't matter so much what it looks like. I have started tweaking the G2 Spacewalker and it is getting closer to how my UCD flies but I have a ways to go with it. I have downloaded several other airplanes that are great for practicing 3D type flying. Unfortunately, none of those are even close to how the UCD flies in real life. The way my UCD is set up, it can fly slow, do the 3D stuff to the best of my ability and then some, and yet flies very nicely at moderate speeds doing pattern type stuff as well. I'm trying to tweak a G2 plane to have those same characteristics to practice a lot and try to improve without spending so much time outside in these cold temperatures, and without risking my UCD learning the more difficult stuff.

I started working on one, because I have a U can do .46.
I started with the tangent, and made it larger, but still cant get the flight caharacteristics anywhere near close.
I think with G2 its always a compromise. You either have a plane that does good hovering, or another that does good waterfalls, or another that does good pattern. You cant seem to get a plane to do all three.
Even some of the larger planes I d/l that other ppl set up, they hover nice, or do good 3-d stuff, but if you want to fly it like a regular plane, its not realistic. Its like flying a feather.
Carlgoldberg extreme is about the best plane I think so far for this stuff.
A good starting point for parameters.
