I just got a laser cut short kit for the Veco Redskin from Laser Works (
http://lazer-works.com/list.html). I was expecting ribs and formers, but also included were fuselage sides and doublers, nose ring, wing tips, and tail surfaces. Wood selection seems OK, probably not to the standards of an RSM or custom kit but not too bad (if I had a scale I'd post the weight). The cost was $22.58 plus shipping. They offer several other C/L short kits, including the Jetco Shark and a Midwest Hornet cut from Barry Baxter plans.
cheers,
Ken
It's a shame he doesn't have a plans link set up yet - I would love to see what the
Blue Pearl by Nexus Plans Service
plane is before purchasing it
Received the Red Skin short kit today great lazer work ,wood was excelent also. Cant wait to start building.
Great site, Ken. Since Larry Richards' Redskin went to the dogs, it's good to have this available in a short kit! Larry reworked the Veco bulkheads to perfection, the originals were eccentric. Weight is not crucial, (as long as it's balsa!) this is a Team Racer, not a stunter. Glad to see it.
