Maiden Flight Of My Vintage Kit Built Sig Kadet Senior RC Airplane

After 15 years of sitting in my attic I built and completed the kit. I completed the airplane in 2 months with the addition of barn door flaps and ailerons, Saito 72, and DuBro Nose wheel brake that is no longer available. This was recorded at Markham Park in Sunrise, South Florida.

Sweet! Glad to see you flying the toys again.

It's nice to see a plane made that well, very uncommon. A Sr is the next plane on my bench, mine will have a RCV.58 in it, I hope mine is as nice as yours when I'm done.

First time I say a Kadet with inverted engine. Very cool.

@cessna18220cc .72 Saito, more than enough power

[@car6on14]

nice plane, is this a saito 72 aac? any idea if the bolt holes are same as a asp 61?

[@cessna18220cc]

what size engine do have on the kadet

[@soarrich]

Really a beautiful plane, but you've got to add some color to the sky blue/cloud white plane.

In person it is not hard to see at all, on video it disappears though.
