Stunt heritage at Brodaks
« on: June 05, 2023, 05:17:56 AM »


       With the encouragement of Will Davis, I'm bringing Dave Slagles C/L Bippi back to Brodaks this year for a demo flight. Dave designed and built the plane, it's got his DNA all over it so it's like having him there. I swapped his down the line power system with an RC unit to control a throttle servo. It's so lightly built, trimmed and balanced that in the hands of an expert it could approximate a pattern. It's a hoot to see it in the air.
