1. So buoyant for its size

2. Almost makes one envious. Dig that sweater. Bless you, and many miles✝️

3. I never noticed any ailerons, so I assume it had wing warping just like the original. Outstanding aeroplane.

4. A very atmospheric scale aircraft… Shame about the endless chatter in the background, the engine sounds wonderful *

5. Very nice model, Fantastic build and great flying!

6. Looks like a Briggs & Stratton engine.

7. 2:06–2:10/Only motor, no audience chatter, superb! Merry Christmas.

8. My brother is the new pilot from the plane. And God Video ??

9. Magnífic. I can't describe this. Thank for the old things that made it happen thanks

26. Hi Horst,

    Perfect report of the flight and excellent video!!

    The engine is a 14 Hp Briggs and Stratton Lawnmower but adapted for this plane by decresing the cranckshafthousing…new castings such as the front cover, incorperating ball bearings, electronic ignition, etc. Runs at 150 rpm static and at max 2600 full throttle.

    It took two years of allmost full time building to complete it and it flew first mid 2012.

27. PERFECTION!!!

28. Great model and excellent video .

29. very nice video
