Yes, a cub, one of the most beautiful flying aircraft I’ve ever flown. Very old and very precious photo.

Definitely is a cub or some piper aircraft, but what does that have to do with the GA-28B that @Flying Monkey fab is building.

0.1 is ready aside from me needing to figure out a better guess on CG

0.1 maiden report:
It's a bit windy today but I wanted to see if she'd fly at all. I was saying anything over 8 seconds would be a win and over 30 would be great.
To my very happy surprise, I flew two batteries through it with no issues. Lots of flight envelope to explore but I am very happy with this first iteration.
Maybe we can get some video later in the week.

Put two full batteries through it today. I like this thing better than any other DTFB plane I have had and not just because it is my idea/design. It is slow enough that it is easy to keep close where my old eyes can keep track of it yet it has shown no problem with basic acrobatics.
I'm getting a lot of ideas for 0.2

Fantastic, congrats on the success!
That really was a perfect launch, it’s amazing that the prototype flew that well, congrats on the success!
