Hi,
Here are a few photos of an Albatros I designed & built. This is a microlite weighing 790 lbs empty, powered by a Toyota 4age 120 hp fuel injected engine driving a psru ratio 2.57:1 cog belt. Aircraft has now flown 40 hrs after all problems ironed out.
Cruise 70 mph hands off, stall 40mph. An interesting aircraft to handle.DSC01806.jpg DSC01803.jpgDSC01808.jpgVID00436.jpg
