That was fun to watch and I really had a good laugh when Otto's hat fell off! It would be extremely entertaining if Otto's feet were connected to rudder pedals so we could see him 'dancing'!

Whoa! You weren't kidding when you told me it was pretty squirrely! Hopefully Otto had a change of clothes after those flights :-) Looks like flight three it was settling down. We'll get it fine tuned at Yakima.

The finishing touch to Otto's wardrobe is now complete. He is now ready for some fun in the sun soaring.2 Photos

Gene,
Absolutely gorgeous!! I've been following your build for the last 1+ years and have found it educational and .....humbling(compared to my builds). Looking forward to seeing it in the air this summer.

All builds must come an end the 40% Ka-3 is no exception. With final assembly and CG balance completed it only lacks the maiden flight.
Span 13ft
Wing area 2362.5 sq in.
Weight 23lbs
Wing loading 22.4 oz per sq ft
Wing cubic load 5.5 What I could find on this number puts it in the trainer/park flyer flight realm.
Thanks to all those that have followed. Hopefully a little knowledge was passed along in the process.6 Photos

The right wing is now painted and in the shop for a 48hr cure. The left wing joined it a few hours later. This waiting tries the patience, but come Monday afternoon the ailerons, aileron servos and spoilers can be installed. A C/G check will then be done to adjust any nose weight before the skid skirt is attached.2 Photos
