I'm in process of building a Sig LT-40 and am already thinking ahead to my next kit. I'd like to build a scale model but dont want to jump all the way up to a giant quite yet. Somthing from Cessna or piper maybe as i have a fondness for GA planes. Can anyone give me some ideas?
Kind Regards
How about a Beaver? I built a 72" Unionville Hobby Supply deHavilland DHC-2 as my second kit and really enjoyed it. The kit was inexpensive (due to US-CAN exchange rate) and fun to build. It is a "builder's" kit, with just a few typewritten pages of instructions. It was challenging for a new builder without being frustrating at all! There is plenty of room to add your own touches here and there.
The resulting model is a blast to fly. I built it with flaps and learned flap flying with the model. It is also at home on floats, so that's an option for the future.
Good flying,
