Dash Board w/Oil Pressure Gauge/light.  Volt & Amp meters.  Tiny Tach, and a combination Altimeter, Clock, Digital compass.

Front wheel w/steel mini-bike fender and steering. Steering is accomplished with a 5/8'' Center Bolt  and 2 sets of Thrust Washers.

Seat is extremely comfortable. The seat pad is from a Yamaha
Rhino, I could not get a bucket from Yamaha for the seat pad, so I had to build a wood frame.

Rear Axle assembly. I used two steel tubes one above the other for additional landing support. The axle is in the lower tube.

Another shot of the rear axle assembly, you can see the clamps made to support the tubes, and that 64 inch prop.

Terry Lutke's Re-Drive unit, utilizing GSC Ground Adjustable Wood Propellers. I love the look of the Wood!

Another shot of the Re-Drive Hub. The design and craftsmanship is evident in this critical component.

I felt compelled to guard the Wing from the propeller parts as much as I reasonably could without reducing air flow.

So I drilled a lot of holes then threaded the material through to create a netting. The Net? Red Weed-Whacker line.

A shot of the side bars, they lay at a good angle, you get some feeling of security with them without blocking the view.

My hand throttle does not hav a throttle lock, this is a lawn mower throttle control that serves as a cruise control.

The American Name V-Twin! 23 HP, cruises at 2500 RPM's.

I used a Gel-Cell Battery. Smaller and no liquid acid.

And quiet! You can hardly hear the motor run.

View from the front, ready to fly!  So we took 'er out.
