    Before I buy a Midget Mustang.

    Hello everyone.


    >>> I've decided against this particular model due to the plans being rather unpolished and hard to read. I'm not a engineer, I want something straight forward, that is why I'm starting a new thread. Thanks all for the advice

    What was that reason?

    Does it come with a full set of plans?

    May I ask why you state test fly and RV-3? I could see saying fly an RV series airplane. But the RV-3 is a single seat. So if you are going to jump into someones single seat RV way not just jump into your own Midget Mustang.

    I have flown from the back of a RV-8A. Was a great little ship but I do not have the cash for a RV.

    The reason is the difficulty of the build.

    The plans are old so I talked to the factory about updated ones and can buy them with a turn in.

    Well, difficulty is a relative term.

    That is good news about the plans, I presume they will be offering "replacement" pricing?
