BBT/WINGBURNER --> 4 REDHEADS and a CARDEN

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

As the title would suggest, Wingburner and I have some real excitement about to unfold over the next few months

There's a sweet 35% about to be shipped from our good friends at Carden!!!

But the really special part is the powerplant - picture 4 redheads (I'm talking cylinders folks!!) equalling 112cc's of smooth, quiet, torquey power!!

And best of all --- this build will get some serious lightening and bling to offset the weight of the 4 redheads up front!!!!


GOING TO BE A BLAST!!!!

Re: BBT/WINGBURNER --> 4 REDHEADS and a CARDEN

Yeeeee-Haaaawwwww

Been wanting to do this project for over a year now. Finally everything fell into place.

With a few after market lightweight goodies and Trev's skills I believe we can look forward to a 28lb plane with a quad up front. Should be amazing.

And yup Jim I got up from being bucked off and it's the venerable 3W-112iB4 CS

Re: BBT/WINGBURNER --> 4 REDHEADS and a CARDEN

That is going to be wicked

But only a 35% ???

I thought a 40% superlight would be good on that motor

Trevor and I have discussed the many possible planes for this engine and we always seem to come back to the 35% over the 40%. I think balancing would be an issue with all the extensive lightening Trevor would have to do on a 40%.

Then there was a 33% Cub that was going to be Cubby Extreme...But then it was thought a 40% would be better.

Sooo it got back to the 35% areobatic type and nothing better than a Carden to to let the redheads show off their stuff!!

Re: BBT/WINGBURNER --> 4 REDHEADS and a CARDEN

Hey Jack,

I hope you can bring it down to Red Deer! I don't participate much but I follow Trev's builts closely.

I can't wait to see it!

Cheers,

Will

Re: BBT/WINGBURNER --> 4 REDHEADS and a CARDEN

Yep, this is going to be a really sweet set-up!!!!

The 3W112 quad is about 2lbs heavier than a 3W106 with a bit more power (should be very close in power to a DA120, if not more!!!)

So, the build will feature a lot of lightening with lots of CF bling to offset the motor weight and I hope it will come in between 28 and 29lbs!!!!

A light plane with the smoothness and power of a quad in a 35% airframe...should be a plane that is worthy of Wingburner!!!!

Hi Will,

I will likely be down in your area in the spring. This plane won't be ready by then but I have another one or two I can bring and fly.

Re: BBT/WINGBURNER --> 4 REDHEADS and a CARDEN

I'm not sure if you guys realize how excited I am!
I will be starting on my 330 as soon as my header tubes show up in the mail.

Trevor, if you need some inspiration, I have a thumb drive with a tonne of pictures I can mail to you... I think I have memorized them all by now. Thanks again.

Nick

Great news Nick!! We'll work together on the E330s then!! Should be fun!!

I'm not sure how much you had planned to lighten on yours, but this one will steal many of the details from my Ultralight 40% Ferrari Edge!!

Cheers
