Any Impact ARCs out there yet?
« on: February 04, 2011, 02:19:28 PM »
After several months and over half of our shipment sold I have yet to
see a pic of an Impact ARC. Have any been completed and flown yet?
I'd sure like to see some pics and hear how they fly. I know how mine
flies: great!

Later, Steve

Hi Steve,
Mine is in the STL crashpad. I got out all of the parts and they looked good. Should start soon on it because I want to paint it in April.

I recommend using whatever Brett is using.  I have an ESComposites pipe modified to Norm Whittle's spec in my Impact with a RO-Jett .65.  It works fine, too.

Well, I just completed my Impact ARC. Used Monocoat on wing and Lusterkote every where else. Power is K&B .61, which runs great on the ground. ARC was pretty easy to put together and very pleased with 57 oz total weight. If the rain holds off and the creeks don't rise, I may get it in the air tomorrow. Jim

Hi Jim, that looks great. The Monokote job looks really good.
Can't wait to here how it flies. If you can get some good pics
of it out in the grass feel free to send some to my email address
at: ultrahobby@cs.com and I'll put them on the website.

Hey Jim,
Could be worse, your boat could be floating in the front yard! %^

Or you could be here.... Cold, cloudy and windy.

Looks great!

Yea, and that is a big boat to be sitting in anyone's front yard. You can't haul that thing with a monster SUV.

Hope you can come up this spring so I can see this plane.

If that plane flies as well as it looks, you have a winner.   Also old age or dead brain took a while to figure out the PSF in front of your number. Z@@ZZZ

Hi Folks,
I have nearly finished my UHP ARC Impact.  As you can see, I opted for a certain west coast style paint scheme.  Power is via OS40VF and bench trimmed weight is 66 oz.  Many thanks to Howard Rush for his assistance with the graphics and answering many questions! Even though it was an ARC, it still took me nearly three months to complete. Thanks to Steve Moon for offering a great product!

Its missing a critical part !!!!!!

Howard can tell you what its missing.
If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.” - Bruce Lee.

My first electric attempt for the intermediate level that I am now at.  My appoligies to Steve Moon for coping the finish and thanks to Tim Stagg who answers my off the wall questions dealing with electric configurations.  It has an E-Flite 32 motor, Hubin FM-9 timer and Castle Ice 50 Lite ESC.  Hope that it trims out for my flights at Brodak this year.  n~
