Keil Kraft Gypsy Build Series - Pt 2: Pulling the Fuselage Together - 1949 Design by Bill Dean

You really demonstrate the attitude of making every individual piece a project unto itself. The longer I build, the more that seems to be the key to success. A well-built rubber powered model is more impressive than many think and you are producing a masterpiece. I look forward to future progress!

Gday Mark, enjoying your videos and learning a lot. It’s been 20 years since I last dabbled in balsa Gliders but I’m back now and watching lots of your videos. Keep them coming 👍

Good morning Mark. Smashing job on the fuselage. Real aeromodelling. I still have the original kit plan, propeller and 2in Streamline wheels. Nice response from Ripmax.

Good morning, thanks for the comment - looks like you could be all set to build the Gypsy yourself!

At this moment I am building Baby Dumpling three channel.

[@MarkRobinson555]

That sounds an interesting build, will have to look it up

[@freeflightscale]

The Gipsy is a great looking model, and you’re doing a great job on the build! I have this kit, so I will be checking the plans to see if they are the correct size, so thanks for the heads up. I still have the prop for the one I built over 20yrs ago as well. 😂

Thank you very much!

Hard to believe the design is 75 years old Mark, she's a classic and Ripmax came good which is what one would hope 👍

[@MarkRobinson555]

Yes, a good response, unfortunately I have heard from so many people who have had the same experience as me, just sad to think of a kid receiving this as his introduction to aeromodelling. Thanks for the comment 😜

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Nice response from Ripmax Mark, like your solution to the undercarriage btw. 😊.

[@MarkRobinson555]

Thanks Mark

I really enjoy your builds,Mark,--what sort of glue do you use ??--(do you remember "Brit-Fix"-modellers glue from years ago ??-thanks Mark.-

[@MarkRobinson555]

Hi there, thanks for the comment, pleased you enjoy the builds. I generally use CA, although I do use epoxy in hi strength areas like the fire wall. Also occasionally use aliphatic resin and pva. Sorry, I don't remember Brit Fix 😜

I am intrigued to find out what RC equipment you are going to use to make it rudder only steerable. I have the same intention.
