Bruce designed the Sig 4* and went off on his own a while back. The Venture 60 is much like the 4*60 but includes some of the changes he was hoping to put in to the next version of the 4*.. Check out his web site and the various posts/threads on the Venture 60 around here. Everyone says it is an awesome kit and great flier.. The Venture 60 is going to be my winter project as my second plane. I think I am a lot like you - flying the wings off an Avistar. Got it knifedging the other day - without a mixing radio!!
