Default Ag-Wagon

I have been flying the ag-wagon for about a year and have been having a ball. The kit was easy to put together and it hastaken a few 'bugs' out in it's flights. I scratch built a fertilize spreader and attached it to the bottom of the wing in a scale location. Being from the Miss. Delta where the ag-plane cut it's teeth, I have seen the plane in action more that a few times. Mine is powered with a Magnum Pro 46 w/10x7 prop. The interior has been upgraded with a pilot, roll-over structure, instrament pannels and all other parts are painted flat black. On the tail, I found an old Jolly Rodgers Skull and Cross-bones from a P-47 kit for the insects and put the 6 Square foot purple on the rudder for 2,4, 5-T herbicide application on rice crops. Last but not least, I constructed a water/solution filler on the left side of the aircraft as on the full sized bird. Plane has enough power to fly scale passes at 5' off the ground but has to be juiced up a little to climb out after the pass. This plane has not been used as an aerobat but strickly as an ag-plane..Contact me at: airplane@tecinfo for more comments...Travis, partner in aviation.....
