Thanks for the input y'all. Nice to see you again Steve. I like the idea of a dolly, but I think I would have to do a little testing before I implemented such a plan. I feel like the plane would be plenty fast with the 074 (which i dont mind), but I believe it will take a little run up in the takeoff due to the small wing. My current field is heavy grass and a little bumpy. Could be tough with a plane this small. I am fairly sure I will build and see how it goes. I will post as I build. The stated weight of 19-20 OZ seems a little heavy to me,. and i will look to shave a little if I can. The HOB planes are slightly bigger, but they fly really well even if they are in the 22-24 oz range. I dont know why I am nervous about this one, but the tip stalling reputation is making me want to plan ahead. Thanks again y'all.
