I went a different route with my Rascal. I planked the top of the fuse in front of the cabin, replaced the top and bottom sheeting aft of the wing with diagonal trusses, changed the nose a bit, and...

Recently, I have imposed a rule for myself. I'm not allowed to start a new project until I've finished the one currently under construction. When it comes to model airplanes, discipline is not my...

Okay, the Ryan SC series are a different can of tuna altogether. I've seen Sig Ryan kits go for as much as $350 (!).
I think I'll keep mine. You might want to take a look at Dubro's line of micro...

Off topic. I noticed you're a Kadet and a Ryan ST-A brother. In my inventory, I have a Kadet Senior and a Sig Ryan, both still in their boxes. How do you like them apples?

Welcome! Glad to have you aboard. Both the rudder and elevator horns on the Gee Bee are made of 1/16" ply, epoxied to hard points I added. Nothing special, really. I added 1/16" balsa pieces inside...

I guess my last post didn't load. While I applaud Easy Built and their efforts, I was hoping for something a little more...substantial? I don't mind carving the cowl, or even the wheel pants. I've...

Now, that's what I call an airplane! I had to hold my laptop upside-down, though. I wonder what causes that. How long ago did you give it up? I am so sick to death of Cubs. I've never built one and I...

Thanks, buddy. Coming from someone who's owned a real T-crate, that means a lot. I've watched videos of full-size clipped wing Taylorcrafts doing airshow work. I want to emulate them as much as...

Funny you should mention the Taylorcraft. This is from a Great Glanes kit, converted to electric. 56" wingspan with an all up weight of 3lbs 4oz. Definitely not a park flier, though.

Dumas/Pat Tritle

Am I the only one who likes to build balsa kits for park flyers? Say it isn't so! How about converting rubber kits to electric? Anybody?
