Isn't she pretty?? I want one i want one!

She sure is !!! Do you have one ordered yet ???

i wish i could wait till mid august when they come in, but i have the urge to buy something now so i'll get one around christmas time probably. hehe

Check out the KMP Gee Bee R-2. Lighter , and bigger(more wing area, less wing loading). Glass fuse, cowl and wheel pants.

the wings looked disproportioned on that one, they a look a little too long..other then that it looks very nice. how much is it?

Had not noticed that before, but I think you may be right. The GP is 46" long and KMP is only 47" long. KMP is $379. GP may be the way to go!.

Just checked out the manual on Great Planes site:
http://www.greatplanes.com/parts/index.html
This a very "Kool" aircraft kit. Includes the dummy radial with pushrod tubes, & has a notch in the bottom of fuse for stock mufflers, and a lot of other neat stuff. Guess I now know what to put my YS 1.20 in.

that YS 120 would do the trick. that'd be one hot airplane. i was thinking a satio 1.50. the YS would be faster though.

hope to get my gee bee this week, puting a ys 140DZ on her , i have the 140 on a 60 size u-can-do now and it will go out of site at 1/4 thro. great eng.

I saw the KMP Gee Bee at the Toledo show last spring. The color match on the fiberglass fuse and heat shrink wings was awful!!!!!!!!! GP much better...very, very sexy!!!

Just picked up a new ys 110fz. This engine should pull the Bee pretty good. Now I just have to finish my other plane so I can make room to put it together.[X(]

GOT MINE TOGATHER, The ys140dz fyys it FAST at 1/2 thro. i love this plane, it flys great. dont need that much eng, the 110 ys or 120 whould be plenty.

Does this plane land as difficultly as the G2 upgrade #5 Gee Bee does?

I Got it figured out, but it took a while.

I have to hold about 1/4 throttle, until I'm about 3' off the deck. It stalls really fast.

The gee bee glids ok but you do haft to land it like on the G2... leave a little power on until you get it close to the runway.

Have you nosed her over yet? How did she fare?

not yet. it lands better if you land on the mains. it floats alot better than i thaught.
