Status: online 		Hi Airroy: It's an easy build. All balsa/ply, sheeted and glassed structure. Cowl, pants, gear, canopy and a really cool set of wing tips are available.

The model flies like it's on rails. Mine is certainly not overpowered with the OS engine, but it still moves right along.

The challenge in flying the Mong is getting consistent landings. The airplane really wants to nose over during roll out. I've noticed that a lot of the guys that race this design have gone to a conventional fuselage mounted gear. It would be an easy mod, and I think would cure the landing problems.

Rule one: No matter what else happens, fly the airplane.
Rule two: Fly it until the last piece stops moving.
You know you've landed with the wheels up when it takes full power to taxi.

Status: offline 		What a great thread with some good looking airplanes. Right now the only bipe in the fleet is a scratched built ag-cat. 3 lbs with a 14 oz/sqft wing loading. Just kinda floats around. Good on floats too. After I finish the Gee Bee on the building board, I am going to start a scaled down Hog Bipe for a .30 4-stroke. Should be neat.
