Here are a few photos of my Unionville Beaver taken over the summer. It was quite breezy as you can see from the photos, but I managed to keep it from tipping over. I built this kit seven years ago.

Cheers!

That is awesome. Are you going to try water? I don't fly pushers, but this is pretty close. Did you try to find my video on YouTube? Just put in NorthStar Landing.

Do you plan to fly this plane off of the water? Can it fly off water? I do not see any wing floats for balance. You can tell you put a lot of work into that plane. Very nice.

Yea on those pics i wasn`t finished with the floats yet, the plan should fly of water but i couldn`t ROW it yet because our pond is frozen over

So far i only handlaunched it for maiden flight and it flies great, should have quite enough power to ROW tho

I have been lucky enough to be welcomed into the water plane scene of late, I now have four water planes. Of course every one has to have a Seamater - mines an original ACE one, I picked it up for £20 from a swap meet and gave it a revamp. I have something thats home grown not by me but flies so gracefully, undercambered wing all up weighs about 6 lb, such a light wing loading (SeaSprite). I have a an old ripmax hellcat slim that I have just put on a mono float but is yet to be tested and I have a old biplane with .62 thats was just made for floats - pictures below, no order . . hope you like . . .

Next plane - Canadair CL415!

Hi Ladies,

I just inherited this float Biplane from my club, and I have no idea what model it is or the model of the real aircraft that it resembles.

If anyone can identify the plane and model maker, it would be helpful. It was set up for glow, but I will be making it electric.

It's a Supermarine Racer! Yes, it was a real plane and what a plane it was.

Chip mull,

Thanks, do you have any clue as to might have made the plane? Kit or real deal.

Randy
