sR117 - - thanks for then rest pics. The Prolinks I have are Dreamworks gear so I think we're taking the same thing. I'll see if I can make it work in a similar fashion.

RE: C-ARF Ultra Flash build Thread + Video

I looked at the Futaba web site and they have lots of sbus servos that are 20mm. The 8411's are 19. The stab is tight. You can make it fit but may have to grind away a little of inside of the upper...

RE: C-ARF Ultra Flash build Thread + Video

So since we're talking about runways and Ultra Lightnings, what do you guys think of an UL on a grass runway about 5-600'. Fairly low approaches so no issue there. Have a 170 - 38 lbs in it.?

RE: C-ARF Ultra Flash build Thread + Video

Sorry to hear about the mid-air loss(es).

I gotta say though, it would take me 5 or more years to put that many flights on any airframe. We just don't have the weather or the facilities to...

RE: C-ARF Ultra Flash build Thread + Video

Don't' forget to glue the fibreglass strip into the cut-out in the bulkhead. It acts as a guide for the nosewheel when it retracts into the fuse. I don't see it in your picture ?
