Why don't you try adding on to your moonraker 4 .Its not hard to do just get a copy of the specs for the 6 and add the extra boom and elements,would be alot cheaper plus you will have the satisfaction of using something you built plus the bragging rights Bob CEF451/VE1CZ Robert L.

CR, that is not a bad idea if you can solve the boom balance problem in the process and also find the parts needed. The 6 is quite a bit longer. The last one I saw sold was recently on ebay going for over $700 I believe. |
