Mini Super Cub & UltraFly Mentor Onboard!

[stukeith]

Finally a break in the weather! sunny and not windy (until I got to the field that is)

My UF Tutor 32e has been sat in a state of disrepair for over a year now! I finally got the enthusiasim to repair it, after getting the MSC boxing day.

Sorry no vid of it flying but the wife couldnt follow it lol! fly well although a little nose heavy!

Mini Super Cub & UltraFly 32e super fly! (6 min 55 sec)

i love my UF tutor, In the last year I've converted it to tail dragger, upgraded the ESC and cooling and reinforced the motor box, it flies brilliantly now, great power for loops

Nice video, funny how when you cut the engine the prop always stops infront of the camera isn't it?

Yea annoying the camera, you dont know until the review either! both times Ive flown the UF i have crashed and smashed the box up. I have made one now from 3mm plywood. and it works good.

The only issue is that the plane seems to want to nose down. Not sure if this is the weight or if the thurst angle is wrong. but some rear stick gets it flying ok. otherwise it flys straight and true, which is not bad seing the damage done to it!

my motorbox failed during a power test, be warned if you go to the larger prop they reccomend it takes its toll, it smoked the ESC aswell. What size pack are you using in yours? I had a 3000 which i think is about as big as will fit and the CoG was fine, how does it fly inverted? How does your CoG compare to the specified?

Im using 2200 - 2800 packs with the std prop.
