Hi All,
I'm looking for a fun build (yes, I want to build) bipe that can haul me around upside down. The complication is that I'm 6'5" and 260 pounds. I'm flying in a Super D right now and man is that thing uncomfortable. I'd like to build something that I can fly comfortably for an hour to an hour and a half and not worry about having to land with numb feet.
I'm not looking for serious competition aerobatics. I'm after something to burn off some stress and the simpler, the better. I'd be happy with a single seat. I'm fine with no electrics. I'm not a horsepower junkie, either. Honestly, an S1C (maybe stretched a bit) sounds about perfect to me but I get the feeling that I will be way too aft even with a bigger motor up front (and obviously over gross).
Does anyone have any suggestions? Would a modified S1C work? If so, what mods should I do?
Thanks!
Kevin
