Have a look here at an old KMFC members  move into fullsize aircraft construction
 
 Richard Welch :.......   "It’s a Vans RV-6. 
I bought it as a “barn find” – basically an untouched (for 16 years !) quickbuild kit that the previous owner had not even opened most of the boxes for. 

It’s going to have a 160hp Lycoming (with full inverted systems for aeros). Should be good for 175mph cruise / 210 VNE / 2 people + 100lb bags (so more than Ryanair then !) with a 700 mile range on Mogas when it’s finished.

Build takes around 2500 hours (but I’m going to outsource the painting) It’s all metal & solid riveted. "

  HAWKER TOMTIT from Andrew Taylor
(VERON kit circa late 70s)
This is my second attempt at electrification and some may remember my first at about this time last year when I brought the Dactyl flying wing pusher to the club meeting.

The Tomtit originally flew with a 40 glow and languished in my attic for twenty-five years. It has been refurbished with solarfilm covering instead of tissue. The nylon used on the fuselage was deemed serviceable. The colour scheme is that chosen by a previous owner the, test pilot Neville Duke. The real example is now with the Shuttleworth collection resplendent in its silver 1929 RAF scheme.

An Overlander 3548 motor drives an 11x5 propeller via a 60 amp. Ubec. and 4c 3350 Li-po. The weight of the model is 5.5 lbs. to give a wing loading of 1 lb. per sq. ft. This gives a very pleasing performance with two, six minutes flights per charge.

(If a member has the companion kit or plan of the Avro 504 I would be very pleased to know).
