Jerrys Big Boy

[kev40]

does any one know if the big boy is still avaliable as a arf and who carries it. Cant seem to find that much info on this plane.

I bought it as a short kit a few years ago. I never did build it. I think I paid $80-$90 for the kit. I never did build it, if you are interested give me a shout.

Sorry, it wasn't the Big Boy, it was the Spoiler, a further refinement of the Big Boy.

The Spoiler will be/is for sale as an ARF from East RC. I don't know when you can buy it, but here it is on the web:

I checked the Morris Hobbies website and it is only listed as a kit. I built one of these a while back and it was a fun plane to fly. Not enough side area on the fuse for a strong knife edge.

That's why the Spoiler was developed. The Spoiler is basically a Big Boy with more side area on the fuse.

i might be inter. in the kit do you know what you have to get for it

The picture of the "Spoiler" looks alot like my "Big Boy". The tail looks shorter and the fuse may be a little larger. I don't remember the weight but this was a very light plane for the wing area. It was the plane I took out the first time I flew for the year to get the old thumbs loosened up.

I like my Big-Boy A R F ,,, ,,, ,,, I think $220, 3 years ago from Morris Hobbies. I put a Saito 150GK on it. She flies fine at 1/4 throttle. They used a MVVS-77 on the prototype.
