My friend Dan Sampson makes the kits now, based on designs by Brian Laird, Paul Masura, Carl Maas and others. I did build the kit, yes.

The airfoil is RG-14. Not sure about the other question, but you can order a kit.

Fiberglass fuselage and plywood skins over foam for the wings. No rudder. Weighs about 40 ounces.

This is near San Francisco, over the Pacific Ocean.

Making a video is a huge amount of work, but I have considered it. Someday.....

Thanks for generous words - this is one of my favorite videos, too.

Beautiful scenery, nice flight, very precise figures...!!! I wish we have such place to fly here in Hungary...

February 15: Wind, minus 10 celsius, snow, grey sky.

It's almost the same here as on the video :-)

Cheers,

Gabor

Thanks! We are very fortunate to have this spot but nature is eating it away a little more each year. Wish I were out there right now.

@JARTReed Thank you very much for information and the link (I supposed it's your construction).

@JARTReed Thank you, very nice flying. What airfoil and wing geometric torsion did you use? Is the plan available?

[epedro63]

Hi, very cool video! Aircobra is from EPP with plastic tape coverage? Is rudder controlled? What is a weight?
