Default impressions of SPAD planes???



This is Tattoo's PBF...actually he calls it the ciggy pack. Incredible flyer! About $1.00's worth of materials in the plane, and about an hour to build one. BTW, for the guys who like to call Spads Tanks and bricks...the plane pictured here has 672 sq/in wing area giving it a wing loading of 8.7 oz/sq. ft. It doesn't need a computer radio (no mixing required) and will hover at less than half throttle with a .25.

Lots of information on this plane here:
