you can have your little dinky delta wings rolling and screaming around the field. i want a radial powered speedster. and that GB-R3 design is flat out gorgeous. the kits are a little pricey though. it would blow to lose a race to a little delta if i had that plane but i'd get over it:D.

The motor is $6350... http://airworld-usa.com/engines_page.htm

This is not a giant scale pylon racer. Very very cool....

dhal22 10-19-2008 06:48 PM

RE: Check out this guys plane
 
you are correct, it is the 250 that WAS around 4k. and they sell the kit also, $4400. now that would be a nice shipment to come home to, the plane and the engine.

David, I look foward to your build log.........!!!!

dhal22 10-19-2008 07:09 PM

RE: Check out this guys plane
 
i actually have someone designing something very similar for me that will be powered by a moki 2.10. a lot cheaper but even the 2.10 sounds good. that one will have a build log in the scratch building forum. probably start it early next yr. maybe it will lead to the real thing someday.

RE: Check out this guys plane
 
Good on you. moki 210 great sound too. Good choice.

That 400cc moki looks like it could lift a human in the air!!!!

RE: Check out this guys plane
 
This is the Moki 400 engine - only $6150 US
