RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Charles,

I lived in Chile for a few years. I don't get to practice my spanish very much!

How's your F4U coming along?

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Hi Charles,

Nice addition. Santa gave me no new RC gear for Christmas. I guess she figger'd I had enough already. I have more planes than I can seem to fly now, plus I have a Goldberg Chipmunk...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Animal,

My kit Ultimate was built fairly light, and I came in at 9.5 pounds all in with glass cowl and pants, aluminum gear, and a 2 pound Saito 150. I covered in monokote. I wouldn't be...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Hi Mono Wing, time to change your alias!!

As you have read, I just finished up my Ultimate with a Saito 150 a few months ago. I used a Dave Brown mount and have the Saito set back to the...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Fun stuff Charles. I dropped pneumatics in a Royal Spitfire I have, but those are Robart. I am also running a 5 cell pack in my Ultimate but it is 1100 mah. Only been around jets once, and it was a...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Charles, kind of sad to be putting the plane away for the winter, eh? (that and washroom are about the only Canadian I know) I'll be doing the same here soon. I am hoping I may get lucky over...

Animal, I am a finance guy by profession, so any non-finance information you get from me is probably worth what you pay for it. For that matter, the same probably goes for any finance info as well ;)...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Charles. Thanks for the compliments. On the fuel dot issue. I am also running three lines from the tank. The clunk line goes to the carb, a fill line setup like yours going to a fuel dot, but my vent...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Hi Animal,

I can't opine on the gasser as I am only flying glo. My Saito 150 turns a 16x8 APC at around 8700-8800 rpm and gives my Ultimate unlimited vertical. Even though I have only flown the...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Very similar setup to what I used on my Andrews Aeromaster, but I soldered a clevis to a pushrod, which was threaded on the other end and bolted the rod onto a homemade 1/4" ply crossbar. I have...

Plasticjoe, sorry to hear about the mishap. Your repairs go much quicker than mine! Sounds like you will be back in the air soon. I guess there are a few of us around here flying these birds with...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Well, I ended up using steel bolts to mount the gear. Have had the bipe done for several weeks now, but I couldn't get good enough weather on a weekend to get out. Had the day off today. The weather...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Finally got my maiden in this afternoon. The plane rotated gently into the air without a hitch. Amazingly, it only needed a click of aileron. I have never had a maiden that flew with so little trim...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Well...the maiden was a bit of a bust this evening. I had a couple of issues that kept me grounded. I had set up my tank with a separate fill line using a fuel dot, but I had also put a one way valve...

Kerrydel, I hope to give you a first hand report soon! Mine is all done and ready to go. Took a few pix of it this evening in the driveway.

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

I don't see any reason why you can't. I have a .91S mounted just shy of inverted in my Midwest Citabria. I purchased my Goldberg Ultimate from a guy who had framed it up and had the mounts already...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Had hoped to get the Ultimate out this weekend, but I had only sprayed the last stripes on the cowl Friday night. So the Citabria got the air time instead. I have set up the control throws using...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Thanks for the tips Charles. I plan to use fairly conservative throws the first time out. And I'll do keep the speed down. How's the takeoff roll?

I might be ready for the maiden this coming...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

Well the Ultimate is essentially flyable. I need to paint the yellow and black trim on the cowl and install the battery. I buttoned everything up tonight to check the cg and determine where to mount...

RE: Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 build

I've been a huge fan of the Waco ever since a saw a pair of full-scale, over-powered versions fly at an airshow over 20 years ago. I almost purchased a 1/4 scale version a few years ago, but decided...
