Steve T Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 This is exactly what I build and enjoy, but I've got 1 build started and plans here for three more, oh well add it to the stack of plans and I'll give this a go, it looks great to me.

Tim Morton Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Many thanks Guiseppe - I've got a love affair going with all things Fly Baby at the moment. I have just restarted (after a 3 year lay-up) building the ¼ scale monoplane one (Eraldo Pomare design - RCM&E 1984) so need to finish that. Wing is 90% complete so hopefully over the next month or two I'll get the rest done. I've a Boddo Mills twin which may be a little underpowered but I'd like to try it anyway - so I'll definitely add it to the build list Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
