Could use a little work to handle a bit of air. I will be looking hard at this for a while... Builder is looking at a redesign using double A arms in front. Maybe I can upgrade mine easily enough at a later date.

They sell plans as well as parts...
You can build one with about any engine. Most want to use a 'busa engine. I would love it if the one I am getting had one. If I end up building my own I will go bigger on the engine.
You can find some for sale in
15 Stars, I want one, who do I contact to get one ? Very Cool
