world models puts out a few sport/pattern planes some with retracts. and there are various sizes. so i understand you correctly you want a glow/gas type airplane? 3dhs has an Osiris if you are ok with electric

the first thing i noticed is they are all ARF's not kits. i like building. and most where nitro. i am looking for gas. but thanks for the suggestion. i think i will go on and see how many people will support this and try a bring back this plane.

crazy

lets try to bring back all discontinued products in this hobby the other day i was lookin to buy the 46% ultimate from horizonhobby and the only way to purchases it is by getting it piece by piece and even then you still dont get every thing you would in an arf

I've got one that I have played with the idea of converting to elctric.
Any opinions?

I voted yes, but then again I already have one NIB

Strangegager any interest is selling her.

Crazy

No, not right now. I looked for a long time, and paid a premium for it...

i understand you change your mind think of me please.

I just got back from the NEAT Fair and I would really like to figure out a power plant to do this. The bigger planes were wonderful to watch. I have two kits, One to build and one for templates and would love to get this moving forward.

This (http://www.hobbypartz.com/mo1602brmo.html) motor has caught my eye but I will consult with my local giant scale electric guru

I saw this one and thought,,,

pretty picture. Can you share a link?

I'd love to see the Ultra Sport 1000 come back. I built the US60 about 12 years ago. Built a US40 about a year ago. I still have them both and they're awesome planes. I love how sturdy they are. They do not feel as delicate as some of my other planes. Still, it's a dated design. Most people aren't interested in building at all any more. They want ARFs. Building an Ultra Sport is a little more labor intensive than most other kids. I love to build, but it seems that I'm in a small minority these days. If a US1000 came out, I'd buy it. I don't know how many other people would though. It's probably not beneficial for them to bring the kit back.

I have one NIB...Paid $100.00 from Tower about 15 years ago....someday.

Here's an alternative to the US 1000 some might want to consider.

A twin electric conversion of something like the US 1000 or the Big Dirty Birdy is on my build list.
