Some have probably seen this but I thought it was a pretty nice kit and the video shows it flys very close to the real thing. Enjoy.

Flips on Grass?

From the description: "If you fly off of grass you will need to build the tailwheel version."

Indeed! That takeoff looked just like the way I do it!

I saw that and thought it was quite funny. Maybe the designer of the model was part of our statistics.... and now flys models.

Thats great. I was looking for something like this a while back and all I could come up with was this one. http://www.aircraftextras.com/RV-RCmodel.htm

The Hobby Lobby one looks like a better kit. Let's see $300..... New toy model or new LED nav lights..... decisions decisions

I'm conspiring with Darwin on a 40-50% version. I've started the CAD drawings but life has put that project on hold. Hopefully I'll get cranked back up soon!
