Yep looking good

getting there slowly but surley
just detailing of cockpit area and canopy to fit to frame and fuse done
then just wings
enjoying the build loads

Hi Rudi,
Great web site of yours. I like the ka8b build.
Like yourself I built ka3 first, see earlier post on this thread for video of maiden
Have you finished both and flown ?
The ka3 flies like a dream.
Did you have any difficulties with the wings on ka8b ?

Some very nice work going on here, so tempting to get 1 myself

here are some pics of the canopy , out of 4 mm brass tube , great to work with
yes jason you should get , excellent kits
rudi ... no probs with c of g in ka3 came out about 7.5 kilos
and on the wing joiner tube ,

hi selleri
thanks for that , if it flies as well as ka3 , will be very pleased
just finished the hinges and catch , and started to do cockpit
wings next week
i have a building board which is not long enough- i was going to build from root then sheet root area then shit along it will be about 30 cm , i think this should work out ok
any thoughts ???

hinges and catch
