Fantastic.

Very neat but very dangerous man,seriously you can build an better one
-
so did it fly?
-
That looks like a flying bathtub

Thats a nice machine. The flea was a good design. People mock and insult what they don't understand. I don't think the rudder is the biggest issue though. I think it's the angle of incidence needing to be greater. I had a similar issue and the problem was that there is a speed where your rudder isn't effective and the tailwheel is to sensative. Taller gear fixed my problem, of course that's after I increased the ruder, changed the weight and ballance, changed prop. 1 inch taller and fixed

This may not have worked out in the long run but it shows great balls and the effort was fantastic.
All power to your joystick mate.

the thing didnt even take off i watched tat for noting
-
That's probably the ugliest thing to have ever flown, but I really support the effort of building your own plane
-
That's a deathtrap if I've ever seen one. Dude, I'm glad you scrapped that design.
I hate to say this, and I hope it doesn't happen, but I think you will die in that thing.

I would not fly in it in the first place! I did not even get involved in the building of it. If I had then it would have had more than childs plastic bicycle wheels on it!
It has been scrapped now, the owner is building another one.

It did fly, but was not very stable. After about 2 hours flying time it was scrapped - time for the next design!

Yes it has flown, but needs some more modification. As it is a 2 axis machine, the rudder needs to be about 50% bigger than it is now.
It is now being flown from a 800 meter tarmac runway - just for a bit more safety.
