I always wanted to build one of these. How come you didn't mount the power train inboard? It would save some cleanup time.  y1

Ty
 Are you going to be at the north Georgia contest on Sept 15th? If so bring your Bearcat as I will be there with mine and we can do a photo shoot thing. I plan on flying the Bearcat in classic-N30. ~^

HI Ty,

Looks good!  Hopefully it will fly great with out much trimming.

How much dihedral does the wing have?

Thanks,
Bill

Hi, Ty, great looking ship!  Only saw one of these fly, years ago, flier named Mike Haravitch from western NY. He flew it really well! One of the all-time sharp
looking profile stunters, hope you enjoy it!

Nice airplane Ty.  Looks great.  Like others I've always wanted to build one of these since I saw Jim Hoffman's back in the late 80's.  Jim's was very nicely finished and really imperssive.  He didn't fly it much...not sure what ever happened to it.

Best looking profile around in my opinion.
