Hello everybody -
we are not in vacation ! :) I had a lot to do with the construction drawings for the wings in final Version because
we need the wings at that Moment to do the next steps for the fuselage.
Actually it is a lot work where you could´n see anything when the day is over...
Minutes ago a came back from the field ( checked the Spinners and backplates for proper work )
and a few other thins for the engine cooling.

Pictures from our new Trailer where the EAGLE fits completly rigged later.....

-> you Need exactly 7 minutes from arriving at the field to take-off :)))))

OK here are a few pics from the today Transport test in the new Trailer and the Spinner-
Test run ( thats because the spinner is still carbon black )

And a few more pics from the last airshow in 2014 where we had a perfect Display with the 100%
and the 50% Eagle. ( in 2016 with my own 100% EAGLE it would be more perfect - but I have to look for
a good Model-Eagle Pilot.... to fly both at the same time would be difficult...:) :) )

I hope we can post a few more pics next week about the construction of the wings

New to GSN!
This is awesome! I m from the Netherlands so i m also bounded on the roules.
Are you going to make a smaller version (33% or so) for the people that haven't that ammount of money?
And you are seaching for a rc pilot?

Really good looking!

Greats

Hello together..

i´m sorry for that long period of silence about the eagle-Project.
The reason is to much work at the main Business - but this is ok because
you Need a lot Money to develop such a Project if you wanna have it
perfect and not only talking about to have it perfect... hope you all understand
what I mean. We can not work 8 hours a day in that Project.

The weather in Germany now ist changing and we can spend more time in the Workshop.

In July I was in the States to store all parts for another 100% EAGLE in a Container -
we are going to build a CHRISEN EAGLE I as a high Performance Biplane with all
Aluminium parts changed in Carbonfibre.

For the 50% Modell of the EAGLE II we are actually working at the moulds for
all of the glassfibre or carbonfibre parts like Cowling, Fairings, Wheelpants,
canopy skirt, and lot more.
If you wanna do that in perfect 50% scale and with a long-term functionality
you Need more time as expected.

We Need a Minium of 6-8 months to have the final kit Version in flight test
to confirm the Performance and to see that there are no surprises.

Please give us the time we Need for a Project like this - and i promise you
that this kit will be the finest thing you can get !

To Didier: we are not going to do the same in 33 % scale because there is no
Chance to produce a kit like this cheaper - and the Problems with weight, materials
dimensions of tubes and much more makes no sense.

We are going to do the Pitts in a few Versions in 50% like the S1-S, S2-A, and the Challenger -
but first of all the EAGLE II and EAGLE I.
