alex nicol Posted December 23, 2017 Author Share Posted December 23, 2017 Thanks, it was me who placed the wanted. Just thought I'd try the forum on the off chance somebody has one in a dusty box in their hanger. But thanks anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CARPERFECT Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Have Ripmax stopped making them ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex nicol Posted December 23, 2017 Author Share Posted December 23, 2017 I'm not a 100% but I think they have, there's none to be had anywhere I can see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul C. Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 The Ripmax bullet was a built up balsa ply structure and 10% larger than the original bullet which had foam veneered wings, I think cloud models do the bullet and a couple of larger 60 size versions.

alex nicol Posted December 23, 2017 Author Share Posted December 23, 2017 I was looking at cloud models and thinking about either the calibre or tornado. The calibre is also a scaled up bullet and slightly bigger than the bullet. I think it's about 65in span. I've got a set of turnigy retracts and an Irvine 53 and asp 75 looking for a home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex nicol Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 Found a plan on aerofred, so have decided it's time have a go at balsa bashing again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Marsh Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 You might get lucky and see one at a Swapmeet next year. I've seen one or two of them for sale. I've got one myself, when it came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex nicol Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 I had a notion for something retro sport aerobatic and the bullet would have fitted the bill just nicely. I'll leave the thread here for now, as you just never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex nicol Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 Any Ripmax Bullet's out there for sale Stil searching and I thought I'd throw this up again on the off chance there's one available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could not find it there at all. There are other plans called Bullet. Edited By Jim Purcha on 19/09/2018 22:22:05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex nicol Posted September 19, 2018 Author Share Posted September 19, 2018 Hi Jim, No joy with the Bullet, however I've just purchased plans for a Chilli Wind and cut the first couple of formers out this evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gangster Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I am sure I saw one outside one of the traders tents at the Nationals. I didn’t get the impression that it was a one off. Might be worth getting hold of a list of the traders and ringing a few. Bit of a slog but once you narrow down the list by removing the very unlikely there would not be many. Unfortunately the program did not list the traders but the BMFA might tell you or forumites could make suggestions from memory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilco Wingco Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Probuild are doing it for £105. Just google Ripmax Bullet and up pop loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex nicol Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 There's a few shops still listing the Ripmax Bullet, but when you follow through its listed as out of stock. I made a couple of calls re delivery but no dates could be given. PB models are doing the original as a kit, which I did seriously consider but finally decided to go for a plan build of a Chilli Wind instead ( should keep me out of mischief for the next month or two) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Hickey Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Hi, Anyone still looking for an old, new in box, bullet kit (pre-ripmax) should try Masons Models in Spalding.01775 722456.I have no links to the shop other than buying another vintage kit there today. They don't have a website as such so best to ring. They have a few nice 'older' kits in stock as well as a nice stock of 'bits and bobs'. Hope this info helps folks.Cheers. Tim.
