Ultra Sport Photo Gallery

Here are some pictures from Ken Isaac. The black "Harry Potter" and the purple "Scarlet" are both Ultra Sport 60's, both powered by an OS 61 FX.

Ken is planning to build a US1000 this winter powered by a YS 120

Two more pictures from Ken Isaac. These are a US40+. For the 40+ he threw away the ugly ABS plastic cowl and carved a new cowl out of balsa. Powered by an OS 46 FX. Looks good.

Here we have a smart looking Ultra Sport 40 from Ryan Goth. Ryan built his from an original early 90s kit.

Brian Stewart sent in these pictures of his Ultra Sport 1000. Its the 73 inch wingspan version. Kit built it sports an OS160 FX and Spring Air retracts.

Mark Gasque sent these photos of his sharp looking US40. Mark had the kit under his bed for 13 years before building it up with Dave Brown retracts and separate aileron servos. Power is from an OS50 SX. Maiden flight was on June 15 2006. Well done Mark.

Vic Miscampbell from Queensland, Australia shows how they do Ultra Sports in the southern hemisphere. The yellow US1000 in the first picture is over 12 years old and built by his now deceased friend. It had many hundreds of flights using ST2000 and ST2500 powerplants. A year ago Vic rebuilt it changing it to a tail dragger and giving it a new look with Koverall covering and paint job. The result...powered with an ST3000...is in the 2nd picture. The US40 in the bones was scratch built from the GP plans.

Matt Remchuk sent these photos of his Ultra Sport 60 built from a Great Planes kit during the mid 90s. Powered by an MVVS .77 w/Macs pipe it has more flights on it than Matt dares to guess. Matt is currently finishing up an Ultra Sport 1000 powered by an OS 120 Supercharged engine

Robert Lancaster bought these two Ultra Sports from other modelers. The red and white US60 has an OS 61 SF with a pitts muffler and that cowl with the air scoop sure gives it a different look. The US40 sports a blue and yellow Blue Angels scheme and looks very sharp. I bet they fly great too.

Joe Miller sent in these pictures of his Ultra Sport 1000. Built from a Great Planes kit it is powered by a Super Tigre G2300 and a 16 X 10 prop.

Here we have Mike Stewart's US60 built from the RCM plans. Mike went for the traditional Great Planes color scheme and outfitted it with a Tower 75 engine and Hobbico retracts.

This is an awesome scratch built US60 by Frank Demaria from the RCM plans. It sports a RCV 91 in the nose and Hitec radio gear. Frank is anxiously awaiting spring to take her up for a maiden flight.

Send me photos of your US 40s or US60s or US1000s

Preference given to scratchbuilds from the RCM plans but planes built

from the Great Planes kits are OK too. No ARFs please.
