Default GEE BEE Y

I got to fly my Gee Bee today with a 20x8 prop . I had better pefromance with more prop outsite the cowl. Top speed was about 60 to 65 mph. @ 6900 rpm with the homelite 33cc motor Rolls are very scale and loops are prefect. Landings are easy, the plane slows down quick. I am glad that I waited for this plane.Besides some of the hardware that I changed, I would have put hard wood stringers in place of the balsa stringers. :spinnyeye :spinnyeye
