Aviation Design Scorpion
 

I thought I would share some pictures of the Aviation Design Scorpion which i have just finished building for a customer.

I got him the all white and got it prepped and painted.

Also he wanted electric retracts and air brakes, but since electric brakes still have not arrived yet, I used a simple air operated wheel brake setup.

Hope you like it

Also here are 2 short clips of the retracts and air brake in operation:

This the old Behotec 180 Kero start, servos JR8711 throughout, Emcotec DPSI BIC power regulator, LADO electric retracts and Behotec struts, wheels and brakes, CAT air trap, JetTech 4L fuel tank. JetTronics Brake valve. Customer will install his own JR Rx, I fly Futaba so I do not know how to program JR stuff, he will do that.

someone said to me just last week,"just think how many AD would sell if they used a single fin/rudder and chopped the wingtips off",as much as i like the scorpion, i think hes right

It is very beautiful, it is a small or large scorpion?

The regular Scorpion

It is a sweet looking jet. One of the best (if not the best) looking jets on the market. When I was in the market for a sport jet, I was torn between this and the Ultra Flash. I went with the Ultra Flash because it seemed the more popular airframe but i prefer the looks of the Scorpion. Sooo nice!
