Ed picked this up from Toledo!

All the bells and whistles of course... only way Ed does it :rock::happy116:

I started on this a few months back. Never did this before so the learning curve is long. The guys at Composites Canada are a tremendous help.

Hi guys,
we wanted to fill up the production line 2,25 m .. 3,05 m .. wit 2,65 m (120 cc) plane into one family similar to Vertigo. This will not be Vertigo!
Main difference is - whole fiberglass / herex fuselage and rudder. These shapes are a bit difficult to make from plywood or polystyrene.
Wing and elevator will be classic structural - ply and balsa construction.
Some proportional changes - fuse is higher then Vertigos in front and also in rear part and it´s narrower. Wing is not so wide and it has new type of SFG.
Wingspan is 2,65 m, lenght without spinner is 2,6 m. Quite long ...
Designed for using GP 123, but suitable for 120 cc engines.
For now we have finished 3D model (author of 3D model is my friend Petr Švec) and we...

Saw this come up for sale and decided to make a winter project of it!!
Undecided if I do a Stearman (no cowl, 2 ailerons) or Super Stearman (cowl, pants, 4 ailerons)!
Also need help on a cool scheme for this!
Besides lightening the build, I plan to make this scale with scale details, fabric covering and paint!
Moki250!

Just finished putting a US Navy paint scheme on my Avanti. Copied from on done in the US. Graphics by Callie.
Painting foam is not fun but as a fellow modeller suggests you use the 20/20 rule. Looks good from 20 feet and 20 mph. Ha.

Flew a first-gen FEJ Hawk with Kingtech170 about 5 years ago and loved how it flew.. much nicer than my Skymaster.
But they had a bad rap... some elevators were failing.
Ended up getting this Hawk NIB on a trade. It is 3rd Gen and I’ve read a number of great reports about the quality and strength of the build.
So far very very impressed with this one. Nothing I see needs strengthening so far and the quality of the paint is super nice!!

I'm Resurrecting the first Giant Scale Aerobatic Airframe Trev built almost 10 years ago.
It's a 107" Aerotech Yak 54 built from a Kit. It was Trev's First BBT and he finished it in QQ's Yak 54 Scheme.
Was powered by a DA85 on a KS Tuned Pipe. He had it for a while then I traded him a 35% Carden Edge for it and he refinished it in my favorite Yak 54 scheme, The Group Tranchant Aerobatic Team.
Trev wanted to keep the DA85/Pipe combo so I put in a DA100L on DA mufflers.With this combo I thought I was around 30 lbs but measured it and she was 33lbs. Big Wing Area made her a floater and while the DA100L wouldn't win any drag races it still had unlimited vertical and if you didn't back-off the throttle it would climb out of site, on a...

OK so seeing as I have finished my 1/3 Stearman I might as well get a start on my 113" super chipmunk . I will be using the Valach 120 boxer twin for power .. was not planing on starting the kit until this fall but seeing as it won't stop snowing up here I might as well make use of my time . This is one massive box of wood that builds a massive Chipmunk . The kit was cut by National Balsa and while the wood looks very good I don't think they know what a lightening hole is, all the parts are just big slabs . First thing is to lay out the sides and mark out the lightening holes and cut them out with the router . The sides are 3 layers thick for 1/2 the length of the plane so this alone will save a ton of weight ..

Was literally forced into buying this at Toledo!!
SupraTim said he loves with DA70 on MTW can but he recently tried one on the RE3 pipe and it was about perfect, LOL.
I have a spare RE3. So going that route.

I decided to pull the trigger on this new beast from Aviation Designs. I was kinda on the fence about the looks until I saw it fly and love the looks in flight. The high speed performance is also insane. I think Peter said he tipped 500km/h with the Behotec 220 and the flight logs I saw with his airspeed telemetry was 486km/h in the heat at Wingham this past weekend.
I have the red/CF scheme coming!!... should arrive tomorrow.
Landing gear will be Behotec Electric gear with the new highspeed wheels.
Power will be a Behotec 220 with Projet Telemetry. Also using the Intarco UAT which is my favorite by a long shot.
Servos will be Futaba BLS172's all around. Twin Futaba 7008 Rx's into a Powerbox Expander and Powerbox iGyro 3e....
