Default Need plan for small bipe....

Hi all,
I have an OS25LA that I would like to build a small bipe for. Not real picky about the plane. Maybe a Stearman, Ultimate or something similar. I can handle dwg or dxf files. I've searched all over the web but havn't had any luck so far. If anyone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it. I would be willing to buy a set if anyone has any suggestions. I would prefer something that isn't too hard to fly. I'm relatively new to RC. Done the trainer thing and had some experience with a Balsa Nova, Ultimate 40 and several 3D electrics. Many thanks in advance for your help and advice.

Default small bipe

I got plans for a small nick ziroli bipe drop me an email. I think its an ultimate. i think a 25 will work fine on it cant remember if it was for a 25 or 40 but can always shrink them a little if need be.

Take a look at this one...

It is the 18th one up from the bottom.

This seems to be the most complete free biplane plans that I have come accross at this size

I'm almost positive I've been to that site, and how I missed that bipe is beyond me. Must be the effects of old age on the brain cells. Wonder how many others I've overlooked? Thank goodness for people like yourself to keep me straight.

I'm glad to help out...If you build this one please take pictures and post them. This will be my next project.
I would love to hear comments about the design of this plane as well as how it flies.

I like the look of ailerons on both wings. How good or bad of an idea is that? When I build this it will be a 40.

Dave,
Yea, 40 would be the way to go. If I didn't have this 25 laying around, that's what I'd do. My 25 is new, got it for Christmas, and it really needs a home. A friend has a nice little bipe that was designed for a .15 that he has put a 25 on and it fly's great. Looks so good in the air. I also have a .15CV that I could use on a small bipe. If I go with this, I'll be sure and post some pics and you do the same.
Thanks again my friend,
Danny

My Twinny is powered with an old OS 20 FSR
and has mini servos... Flies great, can do all the
stunts easily... spins are awesome!
Wing struts are missing in the second pix!

Hisham,
Great looking bipe. I'd love to see those plans. Might be just what I need. What are the construction materials? I already have several mini servo's, small wheels, small fuel tanks, etc...
Just might be able to build this without a lot of expense.
Thanks again my friend,
Danny
