Km, not to get off the subject here but I have to ask you about your avatar? I've always wanted an Ultra-lite aircraft but the misses won't let me.

Ditto on roady's flying interests. The most I have been able to wrangle has been a towable water toy that flys, but that thing will hurt you. I'm getting too old for hard landings..., even if they are on water.

BTW, I saw a Ford Coupe body on Craigslist for a few hundred. Wouldn't want to turn it into a paintball tank, but it sure would look good on a set of nice wheels.

If you're not particular about who see's the rig, or entering it in a beauty contest..., with some sheet metal and a little creativity you can make anything you want.

Hey there outback

It's a 2005 Quicksilver Sport. It has a 40 hp. Rotax 2 stroke engine. I built this from October 2004 until May 2005. It flies about 50 mph. burns 3 gph. and goes about 80 miles on a 6 gallon Tank of gas. But now, my favorite ground transport will be my 1980 EZ-GO.
Soon, to become a paintball Tank once I get this ez-go sorted out

I suppose it would be better than this. LOL! That sounds like a sweet plan.

Re: Other bodies..
 

Jeez.. I hope so..

I want to do a body out of 10 ml. chloroplast. I figure I can slip it over the existing body. After I sort out new toy.

Heck bring it over can always weld somthing up put a piece of pipe on it and make it shoot waterbaloons filled with paint useing hair spray as propelent. Heck they have a few extra tank hulks over at Camp Perry maybe we could get one of those. lol

not to be crashing your thread, what is craigslist? just wandering

Re: Other bodies..
 

What is CRAIGSLIST??

Oh man! You're missing out! Go to...., www.craigslist.com

This is a national open classified, WTB/WTS. Just select your state and region, then do a key word browse for what you're looking for.

They give ebay a run for their money without the bidding hassle, but since it's person to person buy/sell you need to be cautious.

Hey there Dude :-P

I haven't gotten as far as firing up a rosebud just yet. I just got a good set of measurements today. I plan to make a truck front end for practice first.
Any opinions pro or con about using 1/2 inch insulating foam panels for a building medium? I want to put a skin of fiberglass over that. Pix to follow soon.
