"Mishka" from Russia

So far this is only a project ...

fuselage 300 mm longer in the tail sections

If you make the fuselage longer, you will have to increase the height of the mast.

I understand.

JonSu. Does this look familiar?

 

[JonSu]

Yes, of course

Hi Jon, have you or anyone here looked at building a monocoque side by side gyro VS welded frame/single tube gyro? How about using already existing fixed wing LSA fuselage like the RV12. It has has spar attach aft of the pilot seating and superimposed on Mishka-1(below), the mast lines up exactly with the wing spar attach points. The FWF, landing gear, avionics, seating, fuel cell location are unaltered and with a new tailcone and Mishka-1 tail feather may yield a very lightweight tricycle gear tractor gyro.

I think this idea has a right to exist.
