Rapier Plan 427 w/4* 60 wing...
Hi all, I built a Rapier with the shorter 60" wing made into aa tail dragger. I wasn't happy with the take off speed required to get the plane in the air so I looked for other options. A fellow flyer at our field has a 4* 60 and found out that the wing dimensions where it fits into the fuselage are the same. I picked up a wing kit and put it together. Test flew it over the long weekend and it flys great!! Its powered by a Tower Hobbies 60 engine which gives it plenty of oomph. Will get some pics of it in a few days.
