WC:

Yes, the Geobat is unusual. But $40 for the plan?

Wonder if any fish have bitten.

Bill.

WR,

I certainly haven't bitten, as there is just about enough on the page to do your OWN drawing...but I am sure that a few have.....

Thanks for looking here, and PLEASE help me make this forum a success, as there was a lot of interest in having this type of forum from the members...I can count on you to help, as you "float" in many circles....hehehhehehehehe

Hey, the geobat resembles Spiff's craft in my avatar!

I've always wanted a model of this, but I doubt it would fly....

Actually, I've built several sizes and makes of it, it's a hard core flyer, the larger you make it the better. The plans are simple, make a ring, make the front end heavier then the rear, you have a geobat. I did a 16" FOAMie of it, I broke it up into 4 sections, it's glide ratio is incredible, there wasn't even a need to add weight, I'll be building another soon to be a trainer, it's just that easy to fly.........

Ragged views of the original, 170 crashes into the walls and keeps on flying, hehe.
