What is going on with the right side elevator (does it have one) as it doesn't appear to move. Look at elevator after touch-and-go landings after 1:55, 3:15, 5:40. Almost identical wing and stabiliser/rudder profile to the Carl Goldberg 118" Valkyrie, but with an easier build. Maybe Carl decided it took too long to build the Valkyrie.

Not just fun for fathers and sons. My sister and I both raced (well, she raced and I mostly drove into the hay bales) when I was 4 years old.

Been there done that! In the 50's! I have a few 1/4 midgets from the era, but don't have the actual Walborg car I raced back then. But I do have a Racecraft, Offyette and a couple Kurtis cars.

❤️ John Pond built one decades ago with the same color scheme and flew it in Texaco. He discovered that, at 10🦶🏻, the wing planform was the same as the Valkyrie. You should let it glide. Flying like a Back & Forth ARF is out of character. 😂

@vin a Well it was "like" they were doing the same thing "OMG" Yes, I have so many Old Timers, most are stored in a barn. I also have an ATP with several type ratings and an Old Timer oriented website. Check it out and leave a comment: www.thebuildingboard.com

@MGflyingmachines6 жыл бұрын
Hello Cowboy, I am sorry to say Mr. Klarich passed away so that probably explains your frustration with the website. I purchased one of his 120" Comet Clipper short kits just before his passing. I hope to get it built so I can fly with my friend Don who owns and is flying the Comet Clipper in the video.

I just wish someone like "SIG" .inc would pick up on the latest fad of STOL going on. All this gyro stuff flaps, slats vortex generators, sure they work but this airplane you have proves if you design a plane to be slow and docile to begin with, you don't need all that crap!! there just points of failure anyway. The computer controlled Flight assist in my Timber lost it's programming and now they don't support the data to re program it, in the trash now, and an orange receiver in it's place. Is this what everyone wants in a plane? NOOOOO!!!! Your plane blows away any of these gimmick planes and for the first time I find myself willing to build from scratch. 10 foot dihedral coming right up!!! Im using a rain gutter for fuselage and balsa stick build for the negative camber dihedral wing, NO FLAPS slats or crap. 3 channel , low and slow, thats it. I may light it up for night flying.
@cowboy65916 жыл бұрын
What a terrific big and slow flier that plane is. I'd like one like that to put in lights and use it for night flying. The most graceful flight characteristics I have seen.

I love the oldtimers and yours is wonderful. Also, a most beautiful flying site with those snow covered peaks in the background. Do you know if the plan in this 120" size is available somewhere or did they do a onetime enlargement? I currently am flying a 114" Quaker mostly at Weaver Field in Othello, WA. Would love to see this Clipper fly at the June Fly-in.
