The Ultimate AMR 60 V2 is unquestionably, the most refined and capable biplane on the market!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA few words from Shaun, the designer and PA chief engineer...\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAMR 60 was designed in mind as a competition class bi plane and NOT a park flyer. Built strong and precise with high technology engineering, the end result being THE lightest bi-plane ever made in mass production. The flight envelope is incredibly wide from high speed super energy aerobatics to crawling super solid harriers and landings. That allows ANY pilot to confidently fly and enjoy the AMR 60, regardless of their piloting skills. The AMR 60 simply breaks the known barrier most biplanes earned for their high speed landing and rapid stalls. No time or money was spared in the process of the design to the production. I was extremely picky while selecting every tiny bit whether it was a small nut or bolt, to the hinges of which we tested six different materials to get the best stiffness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI had a lot of challenges during the design which made it my toughest project to date. The battery compartment and the ease of installing and removing the batteries was one. Also the hatch design and ease of installation. The quick installation system for the wing was a big challenge. There’s a lot of difficulty in the production process which makes this plane extremely expensive to produce at the high level we set.\u003cbr\u003eThe end result is an exceedingly enjoyable plane to assemble, transport and fly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe extremely detailed and user friendly manual took hundreds of hours to complete but the idea is to allow ANYONE to assemble the plane with ease.\u003cbr\u003eAMR60 can be flown as an excellent sport plane, IMAC practice plane or the most energetic extreme 3D plane. All you need to do is to set up high and low rates (preferably three rate switch). Its large size and vibrant colour scheme allow excellent visibility and orientation in flight. I find it one of the most graceful aerobatics planes to fly, even if you just perform basic aerobatics like rolls and loops. It’s super smooth and precise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI designed the AMR 60 from the ground up ignoring the full scale Ultimate aerodynamic design, however, at the same time I did a HUGE amount of research on all version of the Ultimate ever made and took every tiny bit I liked along my own lines and combined them into a fine looking, highly modified Ultimate. By looking at it, it feels like an Ultimate, however it is far from being scale. It exhibits no KE coupling, extreme maneuverability with unprecedented stall characteristics which will allow the pilot to perform every maneuver they can come up with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to the challenges of the design and the targets we wanted to achieve, this project development and design spanned over more than 5 years. We went back and forth to the drawing board with new ideas refining the design each time to complete this model which is a real engineering achievement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo name just some of the targets:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust a few minutes to assemble at the field, which are easily transportable even in a small car – Shaun developed the IWRS (innovative wing removal system) which requires only two bolts for the bottom wing, and two carbon retaining pins for the top wing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnbelievable low flying weight for optimal wing loading and flight performance. The AMR 60’s all up weight is about half of competing brands which makes it the lightest bi-plane ever made.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt extremely accurately with pre-set wing incidence (done twice, before and after the covering process).

This motor is so efficient it allows us to power the model with 3s 2200 or 2600mAh packs or a single PA 6s 2600 mAh 22.2v battery. We chose to use 2 x 3S packs to allow these packs to be used in our smaller models. The 3s 2200 \/ 2600 is also a pack that is already owned by most of our customers so investment in a single 6S pack is not needed. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis plane \/ gear combination is incredibly versatile, with the use of 3 different props, you can completely transform the plane, VOX15x8 for all around freestyle performance, VOX15x10 for extreme high energy aerobatics, and VOX16x7 for all out low and slow 3D.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe developed the new NXT-200 High Voltage (HV) servos and with them the new Quantum 80 EVO HV ESC with powerful (8amp peak) selectable voltage SBEC, which allows you to choose between 6v, 7.4v and 8.0v! These powerful servos are significantly lighter yet offer more torque, and a smaller foot print taking its performance to the next level!
