Re: What to Build !
David
As I suggested to my son a shoulder wing plane like the Ugly Stick (or Great Planes Big Stik) makes a great second plane. The suggested Kavalier is a very good flier but its looks are a little dated. My son opted for the Eindekker in stead of the Stik as he liked the looks better. As far as I know there are no kits made for the Stik designs at this time. But, I have a set of plans and have been trying to download the kit not ARF manual. We could help you make up a short kit which if you follow the instructions would be not much more difficult than a kit. As to a low wing I do not know if the 4 star would be suitable for a second plane. Other similar planes are the Astro Hog and Super sportster series. I don't know how you feel about a high wing scale plane like a cub, Taylorcraft, Beaver etc. they are another option. Stephen |

Re: What to Build !
Just more ideas. No balsa here, and your new building board would be a waste. Minimum cash if you crash. http://www.spadtothebone.net/SPAD/
