RANS S-18 STINGER II

[@togle184]

Ooooh! The green and black color scheme on one of the aircraft shown is too fantastic for words.

[@geoffreyshepler4954]

Rans really needs to re introduce this plane.

[@gobstoppa1633]

by far the best intro and plane detail discriptn iv seen,excellent.

[@simflying]

Plane of similar role is Aeroprakt A20/30.

[@ThomasGrillo]

Fantastic looking aircraft! I very much miss my Rans Nimbus recumbent bike, I bought from your firm, back in the late 80s. Had to sell it, about a decade later, when my vision started getting worse than it already was. LOL Really enjoyed that bike. And yes, the seat was VERY comfortable, as you mentioned about the aircraft's seat. Oh, the modified wind fairing I had y'all make saved my face from a rock, that was kicked up by a passing truck, back in the early 90s. Thanks for sharing this.

Principal Skinner got a job as a video narrator after leaving Springfield Elementary. Lovely video.

[@BlueMax333]

Quote, from Rans site, "Our "Special Order Aircraft" are aircraft in our collection that we don't have in main-stream production at the moment. We do still produce them, on an as-ordered basis. We do offer full parts and technical support for these aircraft. Shipment on these kits are running at about 10-12 weeks.

[@carlosballesteros3147]

It makes you feel like flying.

[@1silvervespa]

I bet a lot of these are still flying today . 2020 .

[@atmm89]

can you fold the wings for storage???

[@hui4770]

The price of S18??

[@uzokamsi7959]

Awesome design

[@rowanlaurie4443]

How big is it and how much money to buy it and where to buy it

[@stevewilliams6178]

OK guys look at the description of the video,,,,,THIS IS AN OLD, VINTAGE VIDEO.....not available anymore.....

[@hermanwulf6677]

And the Rules have changed.

[@screaminlordbyron7767]

Surely there's a fully enclosed version?

[@mirv71]

What's the black canvas area behind the rear seat on the red aircraft at 7:47? Is that a cargo area? Anybody who is familiar with both types care to compare this to the Drifter?

[@greenlightelec]

Why did Troy McClure do the voice over ?

[@screaminlordbyron7767]

Ya gotta start somewhere!

[@CaptTubs]

what is the maximum range of the s 18? How much fuel does it carry? What are the Max wing loads?

[@2451star]

Question: Why is it that all these type of planes look really aerodynamic except for the engine/prop??? It kinda looks like an afterthought to add an engine!

[@clydemumba7415]

Oh dang!! We forgot the engine

[@matthewexline6589]

My guess would be largely because all of the planes use different engines. There is no one "standard" engine for these planes. It's basically the one main part that's up to the owner and there's a lot of variety in size and power. So they just make space for anything. Again, my guess, I don't own any aircraft.

[@gmcnelly2468]

@@matthewexline6589 Thanks. I have seen several planes that had the engine below the wing or on the tube/spar running fore and aft with the prop on the wing centerline and driven either by the engine with a belt or gear reduction mechanism. These planes looked far more advanced in design (read aerodynamic) than those aircraft with the engine planted on top of the wing catching all that wind and no attempt to enhance the airflow around the engine. You know, kinda like something I cobbled in the backyard and then decided to place an engine on the contraption. I think there is a lot to gain by the plane fabricators in this area!

[@oceanhome2023]

Awesome design and quality , I like the idea of the engine in back of me . Can anyone suggest similar aircraft to purchase ?

[@amandablaise2112]

If you like the engine behind you like that, check out the air-cam. Its slightly bigger version of this, but it has twin engines which is a huge plus for safe flying at low altitudes.

[@jorgenelsonfelix52]

Fantástico muy bueno espectacular. Les mando un saludo muy grande para todos desde Buenos Aires 😃👍👍

[@charlesmachado7464]

Muito legal, é um sonho de consumo. Parabéns!

i guess Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account..? I somehow lost my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me.

[@nehemiahjudah2009]

@Raul Peyton Instablaster :)

[@raulpeyton8370]

@Nehemiah Judah I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@raulpeyton8370]

@Nehemiah Judah it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thank you so much, you saved my account :D

[@nehemiahjudah2009]

@Raul Peyton happy to help :)

[@travelbugse2829]

Great fun, absolutely minimalist. I still have a thing against aircraft that look as if they have a lawnmower on the roof. You have quite a clean design (if a bit wind in your hair) but the engine is not cowled. Daft!

[@michelledauvergne6830]

Very pleasant aircraft to fly !!

[@jjjww975]

No longer in production?

[@DeadRoman]

Wish they would re-release the 18.

[@rameshrajwar918]

[@ericsimpson1176]

[@rodneyadam8200]

This plane is still a available. I didn't know this company was around anymore I figured it bit the dust like the rest of em.

[@ToyManFlyer1100]

[@eleazargarcia4211]

[@cessnadriver9885]

eleazar garcia yes since it is a two place aircraft

[@alaskamike5531]

[@drdimento]

Nice video. This plane sounds expensive.

[@kevinharsley5436]

How much is the cost to build or buy a kit? I love the double seat version! Fantastic!

[@alaskamike5531]

They quit making the kits several years ago.

[@ggacademy9345]

[@simflying]

Strange, S18 is at lower end of their aircrafts page of Rans website :-)

[@simflying]

S12 is side by side, isn't ?

[@joserivas2623]

Do they make nose gear planes ? Or try gear planes?? Cuz all of i seen are tale wheeal.

[@rowanlaurie4443]

You don’t need bad music to sell an aircraft

[@Mike-01234]

Too bad you no longer sell affordable aircraft 70-100k kit planes most people can't afford.

[@Studentofgosset]

The voice is a good example of male "vocal fry"

[@gordonmccoy4537]

Don't trust that TUBE as a connection to the tail feathers... Way too much stress and strain back there... (called "loading"...) Need a triangular attachment....

[@Rockingruvin]

That’s some groovy-ass music… lol. Great aircraft.

[@pierrelang479]

Ótimo vídeo e péssima música. Insuportável. Horrible music, unnecessary.
