I'm building an affordaplane I got all the bolts that I need and already cut the fuselage and the gussets getting ready to drill the holes and build the tale section I will go with the aluminum wing cover on top only this design is good and alot of lift on it sort take off
There is a very active builders group on Yahoo groups. I know of several that are flying and that fly very well. Even a couple new videos here on Youtube that show them flying. Build it, but stick to the plans, many people come in very heavy after modifying it heavily.
I noticed that too... everyone's building them, no one seems to come back with footage. I think its still cheaper (yet more time consuming) to build a cricri which is totally worth it
@chrisv0007 I've been wondering this myself. I just picked up the plans for $8 over on affordaplane (dawt) com , but I can't find ANY pictures or video of this thing doing anything but bouncing along in ground effect. I don't think I'm going to end up building it. Seems like I just wasted $8. :-/
Still trying to find video footage of this plane in full flight. I have the plans, but would like to see more before I put any real time and effort into building one.
I'm building a Sky Pup ultralight and have started a video builders log on Youtube. If anyone is interested in affordable flying the Sky Pup is a professionally designed ultralight that's made from foam and wood. My channel is skypupbuilder, flying should be fun and cheap!

Yep. C'mon, folks. Nobody has any footage of this plane flying? I have the plans, but would love to see how she flies before I start to cut metal.
