RE: OMP Hybrid "My Build"
I have just begun to fly my Hybrid, and I really enjoy flying it. I'm not a very skilled pilot, and because the Hybrid floats on the slightest head wind, all of my landings are like a parachute. I've got to learn how to get it down with the pointy end aimed more towards the ground. One problem is that the Evolution 58 is new and I can't yet keep it's 24*10 prop from pulling the Hybrid forward at the lowest reliable idle I can get. I believe that a lower pitch prop should be ordered soon... maybe something like a 6 or 7 pitch.
Last Winter's Hybrid build was my first non-parkflyer kit, and this winter I look forward to building one of the OMP's mythical Hybrid Fusion 80's with a 50cc on its nose. Maybe OMP will notify me when one is available.
Fly safe, Glover

I'm sure it would fly... but would you be happy with the vertical performance? I do almost all of my flying at less than 1/4 throttle, but like the grin I get when vertical up lines are being flown.

Hey Crash90, here is one I framed up in 10 days. It could be yours for the right price! This airplane is pretty easy to build, and the interlocking system on the wing I don't see how you could build it twisted??? this will be put aside for a while though until I get an engine for it, and after I finish the OMp ultimate I just got in the mail.
