Looks nice. I'm assuming there is a plane in the picture somewhere but it looks nice.

The red white and blue one is a pittz made from the pink pitts the big b1rd was built 20 years ago and was a 50% "MINI MAX" ultralight

13 ft wingspan built from the full size plans built up ribs dope and fabric covered. and here is the fun and or scary part. It tip the scales at 23 lbs with 3 lbs of lead in the nose for balance. one servo per aileron elevator and rudder 3 yes 3 4.8 volt batteries "Y"ed to one switch. and the power was a blistering Quadra 35 . boy have things changed. It flew that way for 5 years without a problem



I should build another one that was a fun plane and I know i need therapy but I like building trust up ribs



I like this thread

Neato.. I had a full scale mini max.. I remember I could look below the end of the runway at 500 feet, push the nose down to a steep descent, pull throttle, and never reach vne and land at the end of the runway.. Lots of drag

Geesh Nelson, After the Hemple my 33% J3 really doesn't look like much.

Way to go Bud.
