1/2 Scale Ka3 from Belgium
« on: August 21, 2015, 14:33:35 PM »
Stay tuned!

One of my customer in Belgium is building a whooping 1/2 scale Ka3 from my plans.
So far, it is looking really good  :clap:  :clap: (and did not wasted time on top of that! :clap: )

I'll update this thread as it goes.
Now, that makes me thinking...  :?:  :?:   :P

Ok, remember that one?

I got the flight report from the pilot/builder!

Great machine, flies fantastic, but too light! Soooo..... Next one will be a 1/2 scale Ka1 (still from my plans)!
