CARF-models Ultra Flash  Evo

 

Back in 2010 the Ultra Flash was introduced following in the footsteps of the game 
changing Classic Flash. For more than eight years the Ultra Flash has ruled as the best 
sports jet available in the 100-140N turbine class. It is almost impossible to visit a Jet 
meeting and not see a row of Ultra Flash models lined up ready for action-whatever the 
weather conditions, it is many pilots go to jet. 

Simple to assemble at the field-one piece wing with two bolts, allows super fast assembly. 
The strength of the Flash series is legendary, the flying qualities are class leading - How do 
we improve on something so close to perfect? Simplify it further, remove the full ducting, 
add a single large capacity fuselage fuel tank, factory installed electric undercarriage set-
including electric wheel brakes, add a lighter tail pipe tube and the Evolution is complete, 
with a stunning new colour scheme, ( All other options still available-even white and a 
vinyl set) CARF Models introduce the Ultra Flash Evo. 

A good quality epoxy adhesive will be required for the few bonding jobs left. Hysol or ZAP 
epoxy glues are recommended. Some CA glues are a useful addition too, particularly for 
tacking parts in place. A selection of drills, Allen keys, large Phillips Screwdriver and 
spanners will be required. 

For any composite drilling, cutting or filing we recommend you wear a suitable face mask 
and eye protection. Handling epoxy adhesives requires care and you should follow the 
manufacturer recommendations with any chemical products handled. 

You have acquired a kit, which can be assembled into a fully working R/C model, when

manufacturers, we are unable to influence the way you build and operate your model and 
we have no control over the methods you use to install, operate and maintain the radio
