Default Capiche 25

Capiche 25 was released as a free plan with RCM&E, though not as a kit or ARTF. I guess we could discuss here this aircraft with those who built it etc. It would be interesting to see how it compares with the rest of the range.

Now if we built fun fly wings for all the current airplanes (C25,C50,C140) we'd have 6 different aircraft. 8 if the Capiche 90 ever comes into being.

So how does the C25 fair for freestyle or maybe basic aeros..?

its no 3d model, but with a few mods could be, i think malcolm may have something up his sleeve.


good for aeros, knife edge is clean and its snaps really nicely.

So a lighter wingloading, higher power to weight would crack it maybe. It makes sense since I think RCM&E asked for an 'aerobat' not a 3D or freestyle. Time to get out the old drill then...

probably call for some different moments/proportions, and a change in wing section too

3d that can be left assembled in the back of the car for those lunch-break moments. [8D] I hear an OS32 calling.
