Default *COUGH* RIPOFF *COUGH*

I dunno, Tattoo...you may want to approach these guys for ripping off the SPA3D: http://www.hobby-lobby.com/minigeebee.htm

Looks familiar, eh?

Personally, If anything we've done has influenced the rash of pizza box/Spa3d type of designs coming out all over the place lately...I'm truely honored! Just as long as every one's having fun! [8D]

I like the guy's long hair that's flying it. If he had a little more "girth" to him, it could be the Chunk flying that.

It's made out of Depron,
I think they took elements from many different venues. IFO,PBF,SPAD.
Many foam guys have been building similar planes, I dont think it's a rip-off.
Billy Hell said it's a tun-o-fun to fly.

My post was kind of tongue in cheek, fellas. I just thought it looked amazingly like a SPA3D, is all. And i really didn't think Tattoo would give a rats behind, anyway. From what I've gathered, he isn't that way at all, or he never would have put such good work in spadtothebone.com.

The Mini Gee Bee was designed by Mike Glass. It is Depron with CF rods. If you own one you are addicted. It will torque roll faster than anything I own. I want to get some lights on my for some night flying. I keep it in my truck at all times.
