I guess that'd be a 100% scale model???

 

[Norton]

No need to start another thread, you already requested this plane in the proper place.

100% is not really a r/c plane, I could see if you wanted it scaled down to a acceptable size.

 

[robo313]

yea sry for another post i just wanted it to be notice and yes thats full scale plans but the plane itself is really not that big .........its not that much bigger than bill hemples 50% cub im 6'2" and the top wing comes up to mid chest to me ...... i think this would make a great rc plane if you look on the web page you could compare it to the pitts spec to help scale it down

Found this on the plane ok 3 View and some other facts. Looks like the Rivtes with an extra wing
