Default RE: Ugly Stick Build

I found a set of plans on line for the Das Ugly stik and decided to laser cut it to the original design. I made a couple improvements, such as 1/16 ply doubler inside the fuse to allow wing bolts, included servo boxes in the wings for ailerons, beefed up wing with hardwood spars and stringers, no dihedral, but you can add it if you want. I precut the ailerons and elevator with the scalloped edges. I'll offer the short kit for $70.00 plus $10.00 S&H the kit includes building plans for the wing, tail and fuse. All the hard work is done just put it together. I'm glad I read your post. I provide the tabs for the ribs to ease assembly, I cut the 1/2" hole through the ribs for a small paper tube to hold the aileron servo wire, I provide plywood ribs where you have the 1/4" thick ones. I stick in plenty of spare parts so you can build to suite your taste.
