Would there be a market for a betkut esq molded kit ?
avyator replied to ColinB's topic in General Construction
I am in agreement with most of the responses in that price point would be the determining factor. I personally would like to see it happen. If the CNC machining makes it easier and more fool proof, (anyone that can design something fool proof, vastly under estimates the ingenuity of a fool) it would be more of an option. If the later RVs required as much sanding and fitting as the earlier models, before CNC and pre-punched skins, I don't think they would be as popular today. Taking measuring and jig work out of the equation would make the kit more popular for those that don't enjoy the building process and would rather be flying. Plus the Berkut is probably the fastest canard you can build that was reasonably priced (its all relative). -
Velocity could use some precision. They suffering from a severe case of low tech.
