Posted: Mon Nov 30, 2020 11:49 pm
Hello Team!
I’ve been researching ways to upgrade And USE my Ultima and happy that I found this site. This kit was a gift from my fiancé when we were dating 30 years ago. We are still married.... hell yeah!
Happy to hear any advice on this journey. I will start by posting my current state and what I’ve done so far.
Steering taken down and all parts polished.
Changed from original Futaba [1975 purchased for RC plane) and servos to Futaba 3PRKA and steering servo.
Went brushless Kinexsis 4000 ESC Combo.
Replaced broken upper deck (eBay to the rescue)
Misplaced the motor guard, will need to locate a replacement.
Input welcome!
