Concorde Speedbird Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I'm building an Ultimate slim next year, a bit like a Tucano? I didn't vote for the Tucano, so I am innocent... CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J V R Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I started building one about 18 months ago & got side tracked with other projects. so you can count me in as I will put this one back on the building board & try to finish it in between sorting out central heating in my workshop & a grand tidy up and reorganising my building space and storage space..

gary watson 1 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 how long have i got until the offer of the full kit closes? Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Hofman Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Tor Ernst Hofman (my son) will build one. This is his first build and maybe the first one to be build in Norway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Gary - good question! I'd like to know as well. I didn't vote for Tucano as far as I remember, but as I said - I'll build whatever is chosen. Count me in please. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff S Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Just noticed this. I actually not only saved the magazines back in 2003 (is it really that long ago?) but I bought the canopy and pilots from Vortex at a show. I was fully intending to build one and even bought an Axi2820/10 which got used elsewhere until the magnets detached themselves. So I'm all set - all I need to do is rekindle my enthusiasm and clear the bench. The minmum weight of the kit was quoted as 48 ozs in the article. With LiPos and brushless it could well be down to 40 ozs. Geoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
