I am looking to sell my U Can Do 60. It is time to down size the fleet to make room for new planes. I am selling my U can Do 60 as an air frame with servos and fuel tank. The motor is not included. I am looking to get $150 out of it. It is a used plane with some patch work on the wing. Shoot me an email at aaronjdewitt@gmail.com if interested.
Thanks!
Updates from Ron and Mort
Hi Everyone,
Sunday Afternoon and it’s a good time to let friends know what’s going on in Florida.
We are having nice weather and enjoying it. Doing the fun stuff along with no hurry to do it. We’ve had Family visiting us and spend a lot of time with Friends here.
Since most of you are Flying Friends I’ll fill you in on that. I finally got my new Extra 260 done and flew it yesterday. It flew really nice, only had a little Elevator trim and it was good. Balance turned out that no down elevator needed when inverted so I was impressed with that. I flew 2 times, the 2nd time I lost the connection of one Aileron and made it down OK with a broken Prop and slightly bent gear but all is well.
Mort is flying his new Hangar 9. Yesterday he made his 20th flight. He really likes it. He had his Canopy fly off his Extra330 and is having a hard time finding a new one. They don’t make that plane and parts are hard to find. That happens when you forget bolts!!!
I’ve included some pictures if you want to view them. All of us are well & healthy. I hope You are too.
Friends Always,
Ron
Jerry Timmer’s New Airplane
Hi Guys,
Along with the usual winter inspections/repairs/upgrades and etc. to my fleet, I added a new plane to the hanger.
This is the Pilot RC 25% Sbach 342 in the Thunderbolt color scheme. I installed a DLE 30 with a Xoar 19×8 PJA Series Beechwood Prop and a wrap around style muffler I had from another engine. All up weight with out fuel is 10 Lbs. 14 Oz. It should have unlimited vertical. A LIFE battery (A123 type) will power the Hitec Optima 7 receiver. The engine ignition has a Rcexl Opto kill switch along with a manual shut off. This one may replace the U-Can-Do 60 as my favorite.

Ron’s Winter Project
Hi Guys,
Thought you might be interested in my project. I just got done balancing it and took some pictures. It’s going a little slow but what do when it’s cold and windy some days. It’s a Seagull Extra 260. I’m putting a DLE30 motor in it so it should handle it well. I must program it and locktight some bolts and final check it. The balance came out really well with no addl weight. Just a few pictures for interesting viewing.
Until Later,
Ron
