RE: Stearman Kit Wanted
The midwest kit is a great kit.Easy to build and complete.
I am in the prosess of building the Ziroli 77 inch from a kit cutters box of sticks.This is not a kit for the new builder. I find that if you don't have a back ground in building you will have a tough time putting this together.You need to fabricate the landing gear,struts and all the parts needed to assemble.Flying my first one with a SPE 43 gas and it flies great. The one I am building now will have the OS 5-300 five cyl engine. It is heavy but I have heard the it flies just fine with the big five cyl.
This is my second Ziroli and even then it is hard. There is no instructions no pictures.All you have is a set of plans and a box of sticks.
It is a challenge but lots of fun.
