What's the RUCKUS? - Sun N Fun 2024 

A certified plane for 40k 😅

Q. Do I need to heat treat (stress relieve) 4130 after welding? ......... i saw some good fabric work. ! 🦧

@@caseymcclure9653That would equate to an old Piper PA-28.

Really? Wow. The openness is amazing in my opinion.

@@Blaircraft.Engines yeah, I guess it would be fine here for the couple of days a year it might be nice weather. Very frustratingly we've had three times the normal rainfall & consistently high winds associated with endless storms & low pressure systems rolling across the country this winter. I'm really fed up with it all & have my fingers crossed things will improve sometime. By the law of averages it has to!!

Top rudder aircraft? They’re in the Atlanta Georgia area. However, I made the trip down from Indiana just for Tuesday.

True. It would be like a modern legal eagle with folding wings!

But not 20k?!? 😁 it definitely looks fun and I think the folding wings are a great option though.

No, I should have ask for more info on that option with the price point. I literally just chatted with them the last 15 mins before leaving the show. It was just for a quick trip Tuesday only.

Good question, not sure. They will have both versions at Oshkosh with more info.

I’m chipping away at it in parallel with the clipper! There will be. 👍

Yeah. The company was recently purchased, I believe we will see a lot more of it by the time of Oshkosh.

There should have more info soon on the 103 version. They haven't actually said a price for the 103 version. I was also told they will have both options at Oshkosh this year.

As slow as it can land and light, true. It’s possibly more about looks with the fancy brakes/wheels.

I’m curious of how much less the part 103 version will be…

$40k for a new plane is not bad. Minimum wage in california is $20 an hour. Cost of labor.

If they sold a kit even quickbuild would be somewhere in the 20k range. Seems like they are targeting the more wealthy people that have toy hauler full of side by sides want something they can just buy and fly without all the FAA hassle. Problem with those types of people don't want to learn the proper way how to fly and end up getting killed. This kind reminds me of the offroad version of the ICON. Compared to a Badland kit cost 16k they offer building it for you also. It also has folding wings its the old kitfox 3 I think they bought the rights to it.

@@916medicoddly enough the $20hr is just for fast food workers

Exactly, 1995

@@TylerBrogger yep, and just as good now as then, most ga aircraft today are 1970 1980

@@vg23air oh yeah no doubt! Just saying it’s different to a completely new aircraft

@@TylerBrogger with the number of people that aged out there are plenty of values out there
