However, it suffered from a couple of major drawbacks. Initially, it had some control difficulties around the stall speed, and it was more complex and therefore more difficult an expensive to produce. As a result, it was never really successful, and only produced in (relatively) small numbers.<\/p>\n<p>Not yet complete, this design incorporates simple design with strong, laser-cut ply and balsa parts. At 2m span, it is just a little under 1\/5 scale, and will fly quite comfortably on a 20cc &#8211; 33cc engine.<\/p>\n<p>Laser-cut short kits wil be available when the design is completed and prototypes flown and tested<\/p>\n<p>Laser-cut short kits are available.
