AeroWorks 150cc Ultimate
It's like anything that's 'no longer produced'......when you find a new/different supplier you jump all over it before it too is, 'gone,gone,gone'- Hinckley Bill

Discussion How I prep for smoke!
Robert, The guy who taught me how to fly in '79 used that same technique on a Byron's Pitts belt-drive setup.......his smoke was truly heavy-duty and he had little, if any, residual oil on his airframe. The nice thing about your setup is that as the pre-heat temperatures get hotter you should...- Hinckley Bill

If I had to buy them I would have probably passed as well but seeing as they came with the electrified version of this plane that I bought I thought it was a good deal- Hinckley Bill

Robert, Thx for the update on the gear....I was just about to call them to check on any progress. Hoping they don't give up, as they're pretty much the only source that I know of for this landing gear Bill- Hinckley Bill

AeroWorks 150cc Ultimate
Been spending a lot of time at my daughters' house helping out with her boys (2 and 6) while she's dealing with some health issues and her husband works, so lots of things are on hold right now. But as much as I love RC my family will always come first so it's not a big deal to me!- Hinckley Bill

AeroWorks 150cc Ultimate
Robert, Based on how the firewall and everything is locked together I believe that it was made specifically for the quad.....stand-offs are roughly 2 1/4"....plus ~1/2" for each wood mount (front and back). Not thrilled with the setup but it works. Concern I have now is for the overall width...- Hinckley Bill

Did some work and got the DA-150 mounted.....will put it on the side for a while to work on my H-9 Ultimate as it's ARTF other than changing out rudder servos in tail for pull pull setup- Hinckley Bill

No Robert...yours never was owned by anyone, factory new I'm speaking about the one I'm now working on...purchased it from a gentleman in Nevada but declined the 4 cylinder, as I always thought it was just too much Bill- Hinckley Bill

AeroWorks 150cc Ultimate
Robert, I think because the original owner had the big-arse 4 cylinder installed (~12.5 lbs) he needed all the help he could get in the tail to balance it out... Since the servos he used (and which I'll continue to use) are Hitec 7980's, with ~1100 oz/in of torque for the pair, and I'll be using...- Hinckley Bill

AeroWorks 150cc Ultimate
Robert, I went back through your thread and saw that you've got a '3-ganged' servo setup on the rudder......any particular reason you went with this versus servos in the tail on each side of the fuselage? The latter method is how the original owner of my Ultimate has it setup but I've never...- Hinckley Bill

Going to have to add ~ 3 1/2" of 'motor mount' because the original owner had a 3W212 quad installed on it so he of course needed a much shorter motor box- Hinckley Bill
