    Sport Idiot Boy Builds an Old School World Engines Robin Hood 99 Kit

    Nope. I've thought about it several times but never when I've had a scale handy. My guess is, with the added weight of the tow and cargo setup it's probably a pig for a 50cc. But with that huge wing it really doesn't matter much. All the old school Robinhoods where covered in fabric and dope...

    Flew all weekend at the Rolla MO Big Bird event. Had a great time with great people and great food to boot. Thanks to everyone that helped make this event a success and to all the pilots that attended. Hope to see you all again next year.

    No doubt. After priming the carb, I think it started for the very first time on the third or fourth flip. Rest of the weekend was pretty much a 1 flip start. So long as we remembered to switch on the ignition. And the only reason that happened is because I have my ignition on a different switch...

    Quick update, The Robinhood flys! And it's still in one piece.:D I'll try to has together a highlights reel sometime this week and get it uploaded. The cargo bay worked flawlessly too. Several parachute drops without a hitch. And I can't say enough great things about the DA50.

    Give-A-Way Custom Vinyl set! Up to a 40%'er. POST YOUR PLAIN PLANE

    Yes. But he's had a rough year health wise so I think that has slowed him down a bit. He goes back to work Tuesday after being off a couple weeks with knee surgery. I'll see him today at the field and I'll mention to him that you still need your graphics.

    It was early spring. Spent most of my free time this year in the shop working on this beast. Last time I took the Tiger to the field I didn't even unload it because the wind was gusting to 25mph. The Tiger flys awesome but it don't like the wind that's for sure.
