Team duster designs air tractor 502-72
 

Anyone ever build this air tractor?
I want to put in a DLE 20cc engine.
It this possible or I have to redo the firewall?
Thank for your help,
Gerard

I have one on the bench now. I have a Saito 100 for it. The DLE 20 will fit but getting the mondule and battery may prove a problem. It is an all wood plane. I have enjoyed the build so far am ready to cover going to make Dusty and haven't come up with an orange paint to match the covering yet.

Hey, I'm doing dusty too for my grandson, let stay connected and see where we are on the build.

Can you post any pic's of the build ?

I don't know how to post pic wish I did. I am doing Dusty because of my four year old grandson. I need to get it covered he is bugging me. I have flown a friends and it flies great, Team Duster p age show one in Dusty colors but Hollis doesn't know how to get in touch with him. I am thinking of going to auto paint store an see if they can get me a color match. Let me know how you are getting alone with yours.

Today the cowl,landing gear,wing tube and canopy came today. I got the email from Team design that my short kit been ship today.
I'm really looking forward on working with Dusty

Glad to hear that good luck. I didn't look at the canopy as I was building so I can't cut the front to make the eyes look right. Just something to think about. It is a fun build I got some 3/4x3 and band sawed the ailerons and flaps as one came out fine .

I'm having the decal made up by www.kirbysgraphics.com, I have to tell him to do the face, I'm not making that myself.
The short kit is comming this week and looking forward to the built

Have you order the decals yet? I will call him and get me a set too.

I didnt order yet, still working on it

I got the short kit today, now need to make a small list on wood stuff :)

You will need some 1/8 and 1/4 plywood. As you can see the wood kit has all that Hollis list. I was very pleased with it. Like I said all I got extra was the aileron stock.

Why do I need more plywood?

I for got that you get a sheet of 1/8 that will do everything you need. You do need some 1/4 that is not in the wood kit. I got a 6x12 sheet that did all I needed.

Ok, thank you
