Ha,ha. Just kidding. Got your attention though didn't it? Now that I do have your attention(and hopefully some manufacturers), who besides myself would love to see one of these hit the market? I'm excited to see that Aerotech has a 50cc version coming out soon. But I would love to see a 100cc powered version hit the market. I'm a little worn out on Extra's, Edge's, Yak's. Lets rally someone to produce one.

This is the scheme I would love to see.

I'm down... I am leaning towards a BI plane... for something different.

Only thing I fear is field set up.... top and bottom wing incedence and flying wires...
ARRRGHHHH (imagine a guy wrapped up and choking in small guage steel wire!)

You are a cruel man. You had me all juiced up, ready to see a kickin' bipe......and it's a no go. The pitts is my favorite bipe out there. I've got a thing for round cowls. And yes I'm a Sukhoi lover too.

LOL, Gotcha! I agree about round cowl airplanes. One of the reasons I like my Panzl so much,besides the way it flies is that it's not an Extra,Edge,Cap,Yak,Ultimate, etc,etc. Don't get me wrong, I still like all those planes alot but I just want something different.

Ya, round cowls rock. I"m also am tired of seeing all the same Giant Scale planes, Extra, Edge, yada yada yada. I'm just finishing up a 46% Giles G-200....kind of a rare bird in that size. Most are G-202's. I currently fly a H9 Suk and am also finishing up a 1/5 scale GeeBee R2. I was hoping to find a 40% or bigger Suk, but all of them are pticed right out of my market or are just so ugle and non-scale that I wouldn't own one. Most companies that have had them in the past have ceased production. I think I'm gonna be reduced to tweak my hucking skills on a 96" bird that flies on 50cc....but will 3D all day long. That's right, the OMP hybrid Edge. Killer performance and it's easier on the wallet that a 100cc bird. Just the way I like it.

Robby, I know all about Bob's airplanes and boy are they nice. I just don't want to build any full on kit builds anymore. One reason I really love ARF's is that I don't have the time into the build that I would in a kit. It's much easier to push yourself when flying if all those man hours are hanging on your back while your flying. I really think an arf in this size would sell quite well, especially if it were done right, without flying wires and engineered in such a way that field assembly is a snap.
