My second plane was an Areomaster bipe kit. 60 size. This was way out of production but found it at a sale still in the box. This was my first ever kit and second plane. built extremely light and floated dead stick real well. Most bipes tend to float like a brick. take offs are tricky if this is the first tail dragger. slow steady increase in speed until the tail comes up the a quicker smooth increase in rpms until at full throttle while keeping it balanced on the mains and running straight down the field. This is to make sure you have enough speed up to make the ailerons effective. Too soon in the air an it will stall over and DIE. Landings are keeping the power on until you clear the edge of the field the idle back. CG is very important.
