To all: I am looking at buying either a NOS Sig Citabria kit or a Bu
Nosen Citabria; I'm not sure what vintage either kit is.
Has anyone built or flown either of these airplanes, other than nast handling on the ground, how well do they fly?
One review of the Sig kit stated that this particular design feature somewhat archaic construction techniques, but since I have built man small wood-and-fabric models, I'm used to carving nose blocks, an otherwise dealing with old-fashioned construction methods. I als understand that the Sig kit has undergone several iterations since i first came out. I don't know how old this kit is, exactly, so how muc difference is there between an early and later production kit?
I read the review of the Bud Nosen Citabria, and appreciate the info.
In either case, I was planning on using either an old Enya .45 or a K& Sportster .45 for power.
I have not flown an RC model in some time, however I was somewha proficient at flying when I was a kid. I've gotten a lot better a building since then, turning out the little guys.
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance
