This 20 size aerobatic model by Dick Sarplous looks like a small Ultra Sport to me. \u00a0It has a symmetrical airfoil\u00a0and plenty of side area. \u00a0It\u2019s very easy to build, too. \u00a0There are 1\/4\u2033 holes in wing ribs for wing jig rods.<\/p>\n

Choose standard ribs for nose wheel, alternate ribs for tail wheel, and also choose standard 1\/4\u2033 spars as noted on plans, or smaller notches for 3\/16\u2033 hard wood spars.<\/p>\n

Get the plan from Outerzone, and you\u2019ll see two fuselages. \u00a0The first fuselage is for use with a rear exhaust engine and a tuned pipe. \u00a0The second one is for a standard side exhaust engine, or electric if you\u2019re into that. \u00a0The parts in my kit are for the second fuselage, as depicted in the photo.<\/p>\n
