Actually looked at them as well, with Cubs being done to death it would be a refreshing change or maybe the EMHW Bellanca.

if you're thinking about a Bellanca build check out Marcus Models out of Brazil, they're extremely scale

The website is in Portugese, I think Chrome browser will translate it.

Don't forget the Christen Husky. Have not seen a good representation of it in years.

I finished the back seat. The vacuum formed plastic was awful and was not as good as the first seat. I almost just threw it away .

But then I remembered I'm CHEAP. So............

You can see the uneven seat cushion and that it was not formed square.

Of course my custom frame work and paint job are impeccable .

How about this one had the opportunity to see this plane at JoeNall and I am not easily impressed but this plane was absolutely gorgeous. It is on my bucket list . It also flew well and no retracts, also watched him put it together and it was pretty normal.

I have been watching one on FG being built. Although they are nice plains and the such I want something to just bash around from the pasture with. Something slow, easy, and relaxing!!! Thus a Cub/Decath style..

Well still working on the 50cc profile and it coming along slowly except for the landing gear have to find some 5mm piano wire. But the plane it self is coming along the tail section is almost built just have to add some hard points, and filling and sanding.

Could you adapt an extra 260 30or50cc CF gear to it?
