Super Cub Ultra in beta testing

[mike_cyul]

Just thought I'd let those interested know that the 210hp Super Cub Ultra is now in the beta testing stage. Depending on the outcome, it shouldn't be more than a couple of week to the release. Screenshots to come in the next few days.

That's great to hear Mike. I think we're all excited to see this bird. Thank you for sharing. :)

[Francois]

Great Mike ! We need more Cubs !!! :-)

Just a couple of screenshots of the cargo version, in a high-vis scheme. Now you can transport much-needed supplies where they're needed, in some of the hardest to reach places. With a max weight of 2400 lbs, you can carry quite a load, and you'll understand that the slatted wing and large control surfaces are not just for having fun. :)

Looks great Mike!

Flew red Charlie on skis yesterday, nice ski flying weather right now here in Alaska!

A lot of what you can do with a cub has to do with how it is driven. There is the keep it simple and light school which I belong to. As with all planes, everything is a compromise. For me, a trip to the Brooks Range requires range. Great float planes they are as well, have some spectacular mountain lakes we go into that to describe are generally more than twice as high as they are long.... The one thing I do think is a worthwhile compromise is a constant speed prop!

Nice series, your cubs! Tom

Great news.

This is something I will have to think about. Perhaps for a later upgrade?

Fantastic! This one has been on my wish list for quite some time.

[olderndirt]

Very attractive paint - especially the red one. This version should be another winner.

[Cag40Navy]

YEEHAW! Cant wait!

[mike_cyul]

...And a general view of the updated panel arrangement. This may still change a little.

Hey Mike, is it still going to include the camping gear?

[mike_cyul]

Hey Mike, is it still going to include the camping gear?

Yes, it is. There's a basic version with camping gear; a passenger version with gear; and a cargo version with emergency gear. Basically, wherever you go, you'll be able to put up a tent and spend the night if you'd like to or have to.

Is that 2400 pound Cargo load or total weight? Wit hthat kind of cargo weight... well, you get the idea...

That's total (max gross) weight. Empty weight is 1200 lbs. Not a bad load!

Odd... I can't see the images. Clicking the links gets me an "invalid attachment specified" alert box.

[SADT]

Hi,

I get the same as CBris - I can't see the attached pictures. Now come to think of it, I cant see any attached pictures..

They reworked something on the forum a couple days ago.

Better check Mikes' website for WIP screenshots : www.flight-replicas.com (http://www.flight-replicas.com/)

I've been longing for this since it was announced. Great news!

Pretty radical airplane! There will be a paint kit in the package. And of course, if you feel like it, you can modify the horsepower and add nitrous at will via the aircraft.cfg.

Ok, I'm hoping these screenshots will not disappear! :)

This is going to make a lot of people happy !!!!

Release the beast

[CBris]

It would be really nice to see the "Carbun Cub" variants from www.cubcrafters.com - cut back wing tips and a sexy cowling

[hae5904]

Awesome Mike...the screenshots speaks for themselves!
Really looking for this one to join the Bush Cubs....:salute:
