Thought that you might want to see how I built my Little Single Seat Super Cub, (LSSSC) :)
I had plans for the Fisher Koala 202, and my neighbor has the prototype Fisher Super Koala. So this is really a Super Koala narrowed down to single place, but built to the dimensions of the Koala 202 for the Cub look. Not one part is the same as either aircraft. All the hardware, controls system, landing gear, fuel system, etc is my design. Powered by a 1835 cc VW engine of 60 HP ( Most bang for the buck). Culver 60 X 26" prop. No electrics with Slick Mag. Firewall forward weight is 141 lbs.
Empty weight is 450 lbs. Cruise is 75-80 mph. ROC is 1200-1300 FPM. Fuel burn is 3 GPH.
First the fuselage.
