It's safe to say that your Brewster build was TOP NOTCH instruction that can be applied to any and all foamie builds.

It should be required reading for any NOOB.

Thanks!
I agree. I too am new to flying. This is exactly the type of information I have been searching for. Steps a to z, and a nice plane to boot. I will be starting after the new year. Thank you Pilot, I can only imagine the time and effort you have devoted to this project. I have heard it said, the best way to show appreciation is to use the information learned and apply it.
Merry Christmas and all the best in the New year.

Thank you guys its what I enjoy, just remember I was neebee too at one point. I still today this day consider myself a noob just because everyday I learn new, which makes me a noob.

Because I felt the same thing you feel, I chose to make myself different, therefore you got what you see here. I have new plans coming soon as I have stepped out of the hobby for a short period to correct issues in my life but I'm back full steam. Here is a link to my site page that host all the Brewster build videos 1 thru 20 in one spot, not sure I posted it here yet but here it is.

Again thanks to all of you who find my disfunctional way of doing things OK...

Thanks For The Airspace,

Just wanted to update the thread here by noting that my Brewster has over 50 flights on her now
When built good and sturdy, Lipo's plane is a real stout number...hehe.

Thumbs up Who's still flying theirs??

Sooooooo.....it's been quiet here in this thread for just over 6 months now, haha doesn't mean MY Brewster has been hanging in the garage
I just put flight 99 on her this afternoon, and to test the new simple landing gear I made for her.
Not quite "scale" as the Brewster shares it's gear design with the Grumann F4F Wildcat and makes for a tough go for us foamie flyers BUT it does work well, allowing for neat ROG take offs and great landings.......it does take a bit of care rolling just before lift off but that's the fun.

Anyway, Lipo...your Brewster is still loving life in Chino.....now even more with touch and go capability....haha.

your Bud,
--Ray

Thanks Ray for your update...I still fly my Brewsters and have seen plenty fly on YouTube but as far as being quiet here on Watt...well its the crowd. Un-related R/C topics seem to get praise these days.

Keep flying and thanks again...
