Lil Jumping Bean( original Kit) WTB
Looking for an original Carl Goldberg Lil Jumpn Bean .049 control line plane... The new ones made by broderak can not accomadate old Blackwidow,Golden -Bee motors... The old style had a plywood firewall not slotted. This is not just for collection but a very speacial gift for a needy nephew.. Building and flying with him will be great fun while he is still able..Will Pay Good cash for the replier to this AD!!

Isaw one on Ebay a couple of weeks ago. Fellow wanted $125!!!!!!!!!! I've also seen more reasonable around $40.
I had at least half a dozen of these back in the '70's. My favorite plane until Imoved up to the bigger stuff.
Good Luck!

There are no plans, just assembly drawings. Everything was notch-fit. You could practically build it without any direction at all.

Scags, If you read the Kit Features it sais "Beam or Radial Mount" that means it will fit a Black Widow or Golden Bee, and even if it didn't it would be super simple to make a radial mount.

Download the plans for the Stunt Chimp and give it an airfoiled rather than flat wing. That comes to about $4 in balsa and is roughly the same thing.
