Aero-Naut Pepper - what a lovely kit .......


Recommended Posts

I found myself with an itch to scratch, I wanted a smallish model that I could leave rigged and ready to go. A walk across the road from my house to an adjacent field gives me opportunities for winter flying when I don't fancy the trek to the club field. I also wanted a build, but not too much of one. Some enjoyable window shopping research turned up the Pepper which seemed to meet most if not all of my "brief". After reading David Ashby's review in the April 2019 RCM&E I was convinced, so an order was duly placed. It arrived this morning and what a lovely box of stuff it is, lots of nice quality wood, very clean laser cutting, an instruction booklet and a very clever cardboard jig which obviates the need for a plan.

I got started straight away, using Deluxe materials Super Phatic this is going to be a quick build:

As befits my flying "skills" this won't be a rocket ship but, with the chosen set up and careful use of the throttle, should provide a lot of fun:

Anyone else got one and able to offer up some building/flying/setup tips?
