RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

Looking Good, KaP2011! It sounds like you had a good time.

Did the retracts work out OK for you? Do you know what rpm you're turning with that prop?

RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

hrrcflyer,

One other thing that the camera did: disguised a bunch of defects! I'm afraid this one is only good for the "Stand Way Off Concourse"....

RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

Here's my version of the US40+. For some reason the camera really washed out the green trim. In real life it is much greener, less blue.

Hobbico retracts
Flaps
OS 70 Surpass II

I hope to...

RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

KaP2011,

The OS engine site lists the weight of a .61 SF as 19 oz. and the .91 Surpass II as 22.6 oz. Do you know how much weight you had to add to balance the .61? If it was about 3 oz. you will...

Yukonflyer,

Your leading edge treatment is very realistic! What material did you use?

RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

The big brown truck dropped off this cowl for my US 40+ and one for a future Super Decathlon. They're from Fiberglass Specialties and they look very good. A little pricey but not something I could...

RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

RE: *** Ultra Sport Brotherhood ***

Thanks for the tip on the sheeting. I'll be careful.

The reason I'm putting in the OS 70 is that I just recently...
