Here’s my 28 year old Ultimate at the field today. I recently adjusted the valve gaps on several of my OS four strokes, including the 120 in this plane. It sure helped me gain back some power lost...

I got the Ultimate up for two flights this morning. Sounds strong and flies great with the new bearings in the OS 120 SurpassE. It still flies nice and straight like I remember. I kept throttle up...

I got my old Ultimate out again the other day. Started up easy and took off. It flew well, just a lil slower, and the old OS 120 Surpass sounded like a farm tractor! I think it needs new bearings....

Hey, use that 110 then, a really great match even better than the YS120. I will leave mine as is since it flies great already. Here is an old video of mine for those who have not seen it before. ...

I agree about a 91 likely being on the weak side. I have an OS 120FS in mine and it is great but not overpowered being an older OS. I think your Saito 125 must be terrific for vertical. The YS 120...

RE: Carl Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 Brotherhood.

RE: Carl Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 Brotherhood.

Over the last few years, I changed all of my 4.8V Nicad battery packs to 6V NimH packs with 2000mAh or more. I like having more torque and more speed at nominal weight gain. My Ultimate has the 6V...
