advice: .60 bipe?

Please share your advice for a .60 biplane for my unused O.S. .91 four stroke. (Kit or ARF ok by me.)



Thank you.

If you can find one, the old CG Ultimate works very well with that power plant as long as you don't build lead sled's. I do not know how it is now that Lanier bought them out....

The Great Planes Tiger Moth .60/.90 ARF looks nice:

My favorite is the Goldberg Ultimate. It builds REALLY fast, is easy to build and flies great with a 91 four stroke. Use 25% nitro and it should pull straight up.

I can't speak for the quality of the "new" Air Flair kits, but the ones I got when Azarr had the company were absolutely wonderful in every way. I had a SkyMaster but I let a flyin' buddy talk me out of it, was taking me too long to build. He finished it and t flies great!

The Sundancer 40 was one of my all-time favorite planes. I really should get another one.

The finest flying bipe that I have ever built and flown with an OS 91 has to be the Great Planes Super Skybolt. It is a solid flying aircraft, grooves like it's on a track, yet very acrobatic when you want it to. With it's lock-in wing struts, it can be assembled and disassembled quickly.

Amen on the Super Skybolt...had one, bit heavy with a YS91AC but awsome..unfortunately it was faster than me.
