Midwest Das Bipe Stik
 

does anyone have the manual for this kit? I have the plans and would love to build it. I'm sure I can without it but it would help a lot. I'd be glad to pay for copying, shipping if I could get one.

Thanks,
Jim

You are in luck, the building instructions are a single sheet. 8 x14. I will take to work and scan them and email if you would like. Send me a PM with your address if you don't want it public. One side is the build the other is the material in the box.

Here are the scans of front and back for those that might want to build. I also have the plans if any would like to have.

I think it would be great to blow this up to like a 75" span and throw a gasser on it. I always wanted one of these when I was a kid, but never got around to building one. Any comments on how they flew? At this point, I think it is more about the nostalgia of these designs. I also like the Sweet and low stick. Never built one of those either :(

Mine flies great. Blowing it up would not be a problem. I can recall some of the original Stik's were blown up and the first gassers used. The cabanes are just bent wires, the fuse is basic box construnction, the wings are constent cord, the engine hangs out in the open, what a great large scale bipe trainer. Shame they are not kitted anymore.

Thanks JimO. I'll print them right out and see what wood I have laying around. Really appreciate it. Always great help here on RCU!

We had an exchange student from Germany 4 years ago and she loved pink. Here is the Bipe Stik in Pink with Miss Sophie. And yes I had a graphic cut with Miss Sophie spelled out on the top

I had a blast with it many years ago, I blew up the plans and will build it bigger. sorry its been long enough now I don't remember the factor I used but have a few projects in front of it yet. It will be cool with a .75 on it.

RE: Midwest Das Bipe Stik
 

I have a 45 saito on this one and it is more than enough. 1.5 times should be fine for a 75

RE: Midwest Das Bipe Stik
 

Are there plans available anywhere? I would love to build one for myself.

IlikeBipes,

I will go in to the deep dark recesses of my shop and find the plans. For the cost of the coping and mailing, I will be happy to send on to you. Should be around $10.
