Delta
 
I'm thinking of starting a new plane.

I am looking for a Delta wing. I would like one in the 40 - 60 size. I looked on RCU and have seen some but would like to get a pusher type. All the ones I see have the engine mounted on the nose. Landing gear would be nice, retracts even better. But I could modify the plane for retracts if it's large enough.

Thanks for the input.

Check out Balsa Usa's Enforcer. Its a 60 size pusher looks like my next delta. I currenly fly the Delta Vortex by Bruce Tharpe.

How about some serious 'kit bashing' starting with the BTE Delta Vortex? Or, you may want to design it yourself and then build it. I did that for my first deltas, using the Balsa USA Notrhstar wing planform as the starting point.

I saw a pic of the Vortex with retracts. That is a nice looking plane with the wheels up.

One of the guys in my club has an Enforcer that he uses to float fly.

I guess I don't have to have a pusher. I was told it would limit my options due to the low number of pusher props made these days. So I may just go with the Vortex and mod it for those retracts.

Thanks guys.
