T-28 kit
Does anyone know of a high quality, laser cut T-28 kit from a reputable manufacturer?

RE: T-28 kit
Not that I've seen. The Pica's were based on the Dave Platt T-28. There now gone. I don't even know of plans that could be cut by one of the kit cutters. Byron had a pretty nice T-28 but that was glass fuse and foam wings. Now Iron bay has all there old line up but I hear that people are having problems with them. Good Luck-Mike

RE: T-28 kit
Well...I guess I'll scrap that idea. Iron bay does have a kit, but it is over $1000 dollars. I don't really have the money for that right now. Perhaps, I'll reapproach the idea in a year or two when college is in the bag.
Thanks. |
RE: T-28 kit
Just about once a quarter I go on the web and suggest a T-28 kit on the Top Flite site and a T-28 ARF on the Great Planes site. A 1/6 or 1/5th scale T-28 would be a great seller because the airplane lends itself perfectly to model form. Tri-gear, lots of (scale) dihederal, Long tail moment etc. It was a trainer afterall! My old Pica T-28 had no bad habits and was around for over 15 years.
Yak P.S. Maybe Skyshark will beat them to it again. ;) |
RE: T-28 kit
Yeah, I'd like to see a T-28 kit available again....

Skyshark, Good idea Hey Mike Grey are you out there. I've got there Avenger kit its nice. I'm sure they could do the T-28 justice. Here's my Pica if I ever get around to finishing it. Mike

Mike, did you ever finish/fly that beautiful plane?

RE: T-28 kit
Yak18: Vance Mosher of Vanguard Plans offer a T-28 plans and/or kit. It's 1/5 scale and really, really nice. You can check out a build on RCScalebuilder forum under Designers, Vanguard Plans, My T-28 Build. Anyhow, check out Vance's website for more information. Also I think RCM Plans still offers Dave Platt's T-28 article and plan and perhaps you can have a kit cutter laser-cut the parts (or cut 'em out yourself). Hope this helps.
