RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

I am using the GP mechanical retracts on my US60. They work very well if landings are not that bad. In a couple of bad landings the wire has bent slightly. Not a bad bent though. But enough for...

RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

Any 0.75 2-stroke is the perfect PLUS engine for US60. Any 0.90+ is overkill. Any 0.60 is a GOOD match.

RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

It flies awesome. Great pull even with the APC 12x6. As a matter of fact, the other day we checked the power with a fish scale. It was doing a pull of about 12 lbs. Same pull my SK 0.90 does in my...

My US60 has GP...

Ken,

I am using the Great Planes retracts in my US60. I have not had any problem with them. I am using a Tower retract servo with them.

RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

I used the GP 40-60 and installed a TH-75 engine. I installed the engine as far back as possible to screw the engine in the thick section of the mount and cut the excess. No problems.
