Das Little StikA small aerobatic flyer built from a kit. This was the third plane I built from a kit. There seem to be many versions of this type of design, though I haven't seen one this small since I built the kit. A Midwest kit (title block) March 2006 These pictures are long over due but here they are. Now I am just waiting for warmer weather to make its maiden flight.
Fall 2006 Took the plane to the field and got it into the air. I got in two flights after several failed take-off attempts. A combination of long grass and overheating motor prevent any future flight. Aug 2008 I bought a new engine for the plane. The old engine didn't have enough power for grass fields. Still tinkering with fuel line and adjusting the center of gravity. last updated: Aug. 1 09 |
